CRM statusQuestions litigation teams ask
Not covered here? Ask our team
How do we confirm the right party before filing a claim?
Company particulars and document images give the legal entity's name, number and directors from the registry, instead of the trading name on an invoice. Litigation, bankruptcy and winding-up searches show whether it is already in litigation or being wound up.
Can we order company, litigation and winding-up searches in one email?
Yes. Email the order to agent@fill-easy.com as your team writes it today, with the matter reference, and each result comes back in the same thread.
Which Hong Kong searches can we order?
Company particulars, annual returns and document images, director index searches, land searches (current and full), litigation searches, and bankruptcy and winding-up searches.
Is the matter reference kept on the result?
Yes. The matter reference you give is recorded on each result, for matter-level billing and disbursement recovery.
Can you help trace a debtor's assets before enforcement?
A director index search shows the Hong Kong companies where a person holds or held appointments, land searches show the ownership and charges on the properties you name, and a Mainland parent's KYB report covers its registration, shareholders and financials.
