If you are not a District Attorney, please go to the home page.
Is your District Attorney or Prosecutor office considering a bad check restitution program? If so, please contact me (Brad Price). I am a national collection agency representative for NorthStar Technologies, a company that offers a FREE bad check restitution program to all District Attorney offices.
You may view a PDF brochure about NorthStar's bad check restitution program on-line. You can also print this information as a tri-fold brochure. Print just the first page from this link and then send the printed page back through your printer to make the brochure.
NorthStar's free worthless check program can operate in one of two ways, and in both cases NorthStar absorbs all the collection costs. You may choose to outsource bad check collection directly to NorthStar (i.e. your office puts businesses in touch with NorthStar, but you still receive part of your state bad check fees). You may also choose to outsource all bad check recovery to NorthStar except in cases where diversion efforts are necessary (i.e. your office exercises its right to prosecute bad check writers who resist the collection efforts).
NorthStar excels at bad check recovery as well as customized solutions for Prosecutor offices. It can work with your District Attorney office to create or expand a free worthless check unit that is just right for your office as well as your local merchants. Merchants in your community may sign-up on-line or use a regular paper agreement.
A bad check restitution program can ease the check collective investigate burden on the local police department, reduce court and docket congestion, provide another tool to dispense justice, and build goodwill between merchants and local government. Here are some of the ways NorthStar would help your office:
-
FREE collection of NSF, stop payment and closed account checks.
-
Merchants receive 100% back on collected NSF checks plus a bank fee not to exceed $10.00 per check.
-
Checks from all counties and states are accepted.
-
Free status reporting.
-
Checks more than 6 months old are processed for free.
-
A "bad check rebate" (25% of the bad check fee) is paid to D.A. offices on every collected check.
-
When the diversion process is necessary, NorthStar splits the diversionary check fee(s) with DA offices (50/50) and NorthStar pays the collection costs.
