When you need to collect the principal amount of P100,000 and below (excluding interest and penalties) against non-paying debtors, all you have to do is to file your cases in the small claims court. For example, an indebtedne­ss of P100,000.00 that earned an interest of P10,000.00 when due and incurred P200.00 as cost of collection - bringing a total of P110,200.00 - will still be within the jurisdicti­on of SCCs. You can easily do it yourself. No lawyers needed. No costly litigation expenses, no delays with speedy resolution­s of your collection cases. Learn all of these and empower yourself in this one-day comprehens­ive program where you will be taught the rules and procedures on what to file, where to file, how to file your collection cases in this practical, easy to understand and comprehens­ive program.
