Discreet and profession-appropriate
Contact that reflects the standing of your firm — never aggressive, always grounded in the facts of the engagement.

Debt recovery for professional services firms
Accountants, financial advisers and management consultants routinely absorb late fee payment rather than risk the client relationship. Merion recovers those fees discreetly — so the relationship survives and your cash flow doesn't.
Professional services firms extend credit on every engagement. Accounting and advisory fees accrue across a tax year before a single invoice is paid. Management consulting retainers bill monthly with payment that follows when it suits the client. Financial advice fees are charged for work already done, and disputed after the fact when investment outcomes disappoint. In each case, the firm has delivered the expertise and issued the invoice — and then absorbed the wait rather than jeopardise an ongoing relationship or its reputation in a tight professional market.
Merion recovers fee arrears for accounting practices, financial advisory firms, management consultancies and specialist professional service providers. We understand the engagement structures that underpin these accounts — retainer agreements, fixed-fee engagements, hourly billing arrangements and scope of work letters — and we recover fees on the basis of what was actually agreed and delivered. Contact is discreet and appropriately professional, disputes are assessed factually before any contact is made, and the approach is calibrated to protect the client relationship where it has genuine ongoing value.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with accounting and financial advice firms?
Yes — accounting practices, financial advisory firms, management consultancies and specialist professional service providers are exactly the clients we work with in this sector.
How are fee disputes and scope disagreements handled?
We review the engagement letter, scope of work and billing history before making any contact. Where the fee is properly owing, we recover it professionally. Where a genuine scope issue exists, we identify it early and discuss it with you before proceeding.
What does recovery cost and will it damage the client relationship?
Recovery is commission-only — a percentage of what we collect, agreed in writing before we start. Our discreet, professional approach is specifically designed to preserve client relationships; a third party handling the matter formally often resolves it while leaving goodwill intact.
