Collections

Toma & Associates has, since its inception, focused on assisting individuals and small businesses collect money owed. The attorneys and staff at the firm have developed proficiency and efficiency in this area through years of experience and working together. Often accounts which other firms might consider too small can be collected cost effectively.

The small size of the firm, and personal attention given to each account, benefits the small businesses and individuals Toma & Associates typically represents. Contrary to larger collection firms, which rely on large volume and delegation to unfamiliar staff, your accounts do not get lost in the shuffle, or languish for lack of attention at Toma & Associates. All accounts are indexed and reviewed regularly by the attorneys.

At Toma & Associates, we’re not afraid to take on the tough cases and difficult issues. Several cases have been won at the appellate level involving fraudulent transfers, franchise rights, and liquidated damages. Aristocrat Lakewood Nursing Home v. Mayne (1999), 133 Ohio App.3d 651 729 N.E.2d 768; Saydell v. Geppetto’s Pizza & Ribs Franchise Systems (1994), 100 Ohio App.3d 111, 652 N.E.2d 218; Arrow Uniform Rental v. Nix, 2002 Ohio 5855, 2002 Ohio App. LEXIS 5696.

While representing a variety of small businesses, Toma & Associates has developed particular expertise in working with several nursing homes in northeast Ohio. To be effective in this area, an attorney needs to be knowledgeable and proficient in Medicaid and Medicare law, probate and guardianships, fraudulent transfers, and bankruptcy. The attorneys at Toma & Associates have the proficiency and experience in all of these areas, uniquely enabling us to effectively serve nursing homes, as well as other business clients.

Toma & Associates offers a variety of fee options, contingency and hourly, depending on the size and number of accounts, and the particular needs of each client. If you would like us to help you seek recovery of payment on delinquent accounts, contact Tim Toma at (440) 516-0200 x 215 or toma@tomalegal.com.
