Pay for Performance

While litigation is one of the most effective ways to collect on a claim, allocating payroll budget towards staff that are fluent in “legalese” but only administrate the legal process part-time can be expensive, and may be outside the focus of your business. Only when your B2B claim is collected do we charge a fee, based on a portion of the recovered amount. We only get paid when you do. This alignment of goals ensures The NL is laser-focused on the same financial objectives as our clients. It also eliminates costs you would otherwise pay for allocating staff time towards the litigation of claims that don’t produce, and lets you put your time and resources back into doing what you do best: running your own business.

Furthermore, NL Advantage engages The NL’s proprietary technology, premier legal network, and deep industry expertise to ensure the greatest chance of liquidating any B2B commercial claim. The volume of claims channeled through The NL gives us unique statistical intelligence into legal claim performance, which is why The NL is willing to assume the up-front risk of allocating our own staff to work on your claims. We have the insights across a broader attorney network that give us a better chance of legal claim performance than any single one of our clients do.

Whether you do or don’t have enough in-house staff to handle all your legal claims, it doesn’t make sense to spend more money than you have to on internal resources, hoping to recoup your costs by collecting from another business. The smart thing to do is to use NL Advantage to outsource your B2B commercial accounts requiring legal action. Then sit back and let your NL Advantage account executive, backed by data-driven market intelligence, operationally manage the complex litigation process for you, soup to nuts. NL Advantage does it all with no up-front charges. Your Return On Investment (ROI) is guaranteed.

The NL Marketplace is an online hub that centralizes placement and performance of legal claims around the world. Our database of more than $60 Billion in legal claims—placed, tracked and aggregated across multiple industries, regions, and practice areas—gives us unique visibility into performance statistics, which The NL analyzes with proprietary algorithms to turn into actionable market intelligence. The aggregated volume of these legal claims statistically validates industry standards, trends and benchmarks for claim performance, which The NL applies for our clients’ financial benefit.

Consistent with the The NL’s privacy policy, NL Advantage uses state of the art technology and proprietary algorithms to ensure client data remains secure and confidential at all times. We do not share or reveal information about any claim except with the receiving attorney.

Established in 1900, The NL has decades-long relationships with our international network of pre-vetted attorneys. We are so confident of their compliance with strict professional criteria and requirements that we offer free insurance on claims placed through NL Advantage. Attorney fees are a competitive percentage of recovered funds, so there is normally no charge until attorneys turn claims into cash for your business (if there are court costs, NL Advantage passes these through at no additional charge). Anxiety over cost is eliminated.
