Where counties, cities, municipalities, and other local government bodies need help in collecting fines, unpaid utility charges, taxes and other municipal fees, Nguyen | Ballato has the personnel and the experience to work with the appropriate departments in a coordinated effort to recover the unpaid debt from the businesses or individuals owing those amounts. Using both legal action and direct contact with taxpayers, Nguyen | Ballato recognizes the need that local government has to meet revenue predictions while working with its citizens’ financial hardships.
Nguyen | Ballato has served both the City of Richmond and Henrico County in Virginia with their recovery of debt arising from a variety of instances including:

The knowledge and experience gained from representing governmental entities has shown that taxpayers and citizens respond most positively where incentive-based solutions are presented. The use of legal action to obtain judgment is sometimes the motivation to obtain payment. Resolving reasonable disputes through due process in courts allows taxpayers the opportunity to be heard, while also providing ample tools to maximize the recovery of the unpaid amounts.
