How it works
From the open claim to the payout. You hand over your invoice digitally, incaseof.law takes care of the rest.
Upload the outstanding invoice digitally or hand it over automatically through the connector from your accounting system. In just a few minutes.
As a licensed debt collection institute, confirmed by the OGH, we call on your debtor to pay, out of court and, if necessary, in court through electronic legal communication.
After successful collection we pay out, 100% of the claim, without deductions for you. You can see the status transparently in your portal at any time.
When nobody responds
If the debtor does not respond to the demand for payment, incaseof.law escalates stage by stage: from the out-of-court demand through the court title to enforcement. You do not track a single deadline, incaseof.law steers the whole route through to the payout.

“We handle this in-house.”
That costs your team time and energy, without the enforcement power of a licensed debt collection institute. incaseof.law takes over the whole route through to enforcement, while your team looks after the business.
“I do not want to strain my customer relationship.”
The tone stays factual and professional. Most cases are settled out of court, because a demand from a licensed institute is taken seriously, without you having to send reminders yourself.
“Is it worth it for small amounts?”
Yes. Because the debtor bears the default costs, your claim stays undiminished. There is no minimum volume and no contract, you hand over exactly the invoices that are open.

What our clients say
After I saw the incaseof.law demo, I cancelled the contract with our previous debt collection provider straight away. We settled the first two five-figure claims within a few days. After that we connected directly to incaseof.law via REST API.
