Unpaid checks, returned by the bank for any reason, are referred
to the Collection Department. A $30.00 fee will be assessed. A letter is
sent to the client advising them of the returned check. If there is no response
from the client, the collector will attempt to contact them by telephone.
The final collection action is to send a Notice to Dishonor which advises
the client that failure to pay may result in additional collection and attorney
fees being assessed. Interest of 12% is added from the date of dishonor.
