A NORTH-EAST debt decovery expert is celebrating after he received national acclaim for his work.
Darlington solicitor Mark Gardner, head of debt recovery at Excello Law, has seen the firm scoop Corporate Intl Magazine Global Award for Debt Recovery Law Firm of the Year in England 2014.
He has been undertaking debt recovery, insolvency and commercial litigation work for more than 27 years.
Mr Gardner, who has also chaired Darlington Business Club for the last four years, said: “I am flattered that the firm has received this award which I believe reflects the relationship that everyone in the team builds with our clients which enables us to understand their business and have a full and frank discussion with them.
"Debt recovery is an issue with most businesses and needs to be handled swiftly, efficiently and effectively. I have an understanding with my clients so that they are aware of the information I need and I contact them as and when there is anything to report so as not to overburden them. My clients can always ring me to discuss a point or seek advice before passing a matter over to me.
"It is a popular misconception that debt recovery is expensive – it is not and the process starts from only £12.50 plus VAT.
"I thank all those clients who have supported us and continue to do so. It is nice to know that what we do is appreciated.”
