About Legal Collects
Recovering unpaid B2B invoices for California businesses through AI automation and attorney oversight -- faster, more affordable, and fully transparent.
Our Mission
Legal Collects exists to help California B2B businesses recover the money they are owed -- without the high costs, long timelines, or opacity that define traditional debt collection. We combine AI-driven automation with licensed attorney oversight to deliver a recovery process that is fast, compliant, and affordable.
Every unpaid invoice represents real harm to a business. Payroll, inventory, growth plans -- they all depend on cash flow. Our platform is built to get that money moving again within 30 days, at a fraction of what legacy agencies charge.
Why We Built This
Traditional collection agencies charge 25% to 50% of recovered funds. They operate on long timelines with little visibility into what is actually happening with your account. For small and mid-size businesses, that math often means writing off the debt entirely -- even when the debtor has the ability to pay.
We saw an opportunity to fix that. Modern AI can handle the repetitive, time-sensitive work of debt recovery -- sending demand emails, scheduling SMS follow-ups, making voice calls -- while an attorney ensures every action stays within legal bounds. The result is a system that works harder, costs less, and keeps you informed every step of the way.
How We're Different
Legal Collects is not a traditional collection agency. Here is what sets us apart.
AI Automation
Our 30-day automated sequence uses email, SMS, and AI-powered voice calls to reach debtors on a structured timeline -- no manual follow-up gaps or forgotten accounts.
Attorney-Backed
Every claim is overseen by a licensed California attorney. Demand letters carry legal weight, and every communication is compliant with state and federal regulations.
15% Contingency Fee
We charge 15% of what we recover -- well below industry averages. If we do not collect, you pay nothing. Our incentives are aligned with yours.
Transparent Portal
Track every claim in real time through your client portal. See exactly which communications have been sent, when the debtor responded, and where your claim stands.

Legal Collects is led by a team with deep experience in California commercial law and technology.

California Focus
Legal Collects is licensed to practice in the state of California. We specialize exclusively in California B2B commercial debt recovery, which means deep expertise in the California Commercial Code, the Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and state-specific procedural requirements.
This focused approach allows us to move faster and more effectively than national agencies that spread their attention across 50 states. When your debtor is in California, you want a team that knows California law inside and out.
