Debt Recovery Services in Dubai
Unpaid invoices are one of the biggest threats to a small or mid-sized business. The longer a debt remains outstanding, the less likely it is to be recovered, yet many companies wait months before acting because they lack the time or the right documents.
Dawn Consultancy helps UAE businesses recover outstanding receivables through a structured, professional process: organising the evidence, reconciling the account, engaging the debtor and, where needed, escalating through our partner law firms.
Our debt recovery process
- Account review. We reconcile the debtor account and confirm the amount due, including invoices, delivery evidence, contracts and correspondence.
- Statement of account. We prepare a clear statement and supporting schedule.
- Structured follow-up. We engage the debtor professionally to confirm the balance and agree payment.
- Payment arrangements. Where appropriate, we negotiate instalment plans or settlements with written acknowledgement.
- Formal demand. If the debt remains unpaid, a formal demand is issued through a licensed law firm.
- Legal escalation. Where necessary, your case is handed to our partner advocates for proceedings, with our financial documentation prepared.

Frequently asked questions
Can you recover debts from customers in other emirates?
Yes. We act for claims across the UAE and coordinate with partner law firms where legal action is required in a particular emirate.
Do you take legal action yourselves?
Legal proceedings are handled by licensed advocates. We prepare the financial evidence and reconciled statements, manage pre-legal recovery and coordinate with our partner law firms.
How old can a debt be?
Older debts are harder to recover and may be affected by limitation periods. Act as early as possible and seek advice on older claims.
What documents do I need?
Contracts or purchase orders, invoices, delivery or completion evidence, a statement of account and any correspondence in which the debtor acknowledged the amount.
