TESTIMONIAL Joe Panagio
Credit Manager Medical Device Manufacturer - New York "I am the credit & collections manager for a publicly held company and a leading medical device manufacturer located in New York. Although we pride ourselves on our internal collection abilities, we have found it very helpful to utilize the services of a third party recovery firm to assist in the collection of our accounts receivable.

We have been working exclusively with Stevens & Ricci since 2001 because of their expertise in quickly and professionally recovering our accounts. We have found that their staff is adept at dealing with any type of business or legal issue that might arise in the recovery of our accounts and should an account have to be litigated, the process is seamless. Most importantly, Stevens & Ricci's collection rate of dollars placed versus dollars recovered is in excess of 80%. This bottom line pleases both our Board of Directors and shareholders. We highly recommend Stevens & Ricci for the collection of your company's outstanding accounts receivable. " |
