- ERP integrations: Seamlessly integrate with popular ERP systems like QuickBooks or Xero.

⏳ Immediate activation means your debt recovery starts instantly.
Step 2: Amicable Collection (Cobranza Extrajudicial) 🤝
Our initial, non-judicial stage involves professional negotiations guided by Ativo’s local expertise:
- Demand Letters: Formally request payment through carefully crafted letters (cartas de cobranza), strategically delivered via certified mail or notarized demand (requerimiento notarial).
- Direct Negotiation: Engage debtors through phone calls and in-person meetings, exploring payment plans or settlements.
- Resolution Timeline: Typically, amicable collections conclude within 15–30 days.
Step 3: Optional Legal Escalation (Juicio Ejecutivo Mercantil) ⚖️
If amicable recovery fails, our vetted legal network initiates formal proceedings swiftly:
- Formal Lawsuit: Filing of a demanda under Mexico’s Código de Comercio with essential original documents supporting your claim.
- Summons (Emplazamiento): Court issues formal notice; prejudgment attachment (embargo precautorio) secures debtor’s assets early.
- Response Timeframe: Debtors have typically 8 business days to contest in executive proceedings, 15 days for ordinary proceedings.
- Transparent Quotes: Receive up to three fixed-price legal proposals, ensuring cost clarity.
Step 4: Enforcement & Recovery (Etapa de Ejecución) 🏦
Securing your owed funds involves systematic asset recovery:
- Bank Account Garnishment: Quick freezing of debtor’s bank accounts upon court order.
- Real Estate Liens: Registering legal claims against debtor’s properties.
- Asset Seizure & Auction: Court-appointed actuarios seize tangible assets for auction, usually within 2–4 weeks post-judgment.
📚 Local Laws & Compliance
Debitura ensures strict adherence to Mexico’s robust legal framework:
- Código de Comercio: Governs commercial debt litigation and collection procedures.
- Código Civil Federal: Defines obligations, statute of limitations (generally 10 years), and standard legal interest rates.
- Ley Federal de Protección al Consumidor: Oversees consumer debt collection practices, managed by PROFECO.
- Ley General de Títulos y Operaciones de Crédito: Dictates special procedures for checks, promissory notes, and other negotiable instruments.
- Código Nacional de Procedimientos Civiles y Familiares (CNPCF): A new unified procedural code aimed at streamlining litigation nationwide by 2027.
🤝 Relationship-Preserving Approach
Debitura prioritizes maintaining positive relationships even during debt recovery:
- Respectful communication: Professional interactions ensure debtor dignity.
- Flexible settlements: Encouraging manageable agreements beneficial to both parties.
- Cultural understanding: Navigating negotiations sensitively, informed by local customs.
- Transparent documentation: Clear and legally enforceable agreements prevent future disputes.
