Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the mid-19th Century, is an extensive guidebook on the collection of claims and legal judgments due to companies, predominantly in cases where the debtor lived in a different state, with a primary focus on Massachusetts. At the time, there was no U.S. bankruptcy code and the author, J.D. Brown, sought to provide merchants with a comprehensive understanding of the laws of several states in relation to debt collection, including specifics on limitations on actions, property exemptions, and the circumstances under which debtors could be imprisoned. The book additionally includes a list of attorneys in each state for merchants to contact, with the author personally attesting to their reliability and competence, as well as advice on interest rates and penalties for exceeding them. As such, this book is an invaluable resource for understanding both the legal landscape of debt collection in the mid-19th century United States, as well as business practices and concerns of the time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
