Wisconsin State Law requires that you be licensed to operate a collection agency and solicit new business accounts. The law further states that your agency be bonded at a minimum of $25,000 and maintain a trust account which maintains a balance of at least $7,500.00. While Wisconsin’s laws are stringent, First Recovery Solutions is happy to comply with the State of Wisconsin’s requirements when its laws potentially weed out companies that may operate their collection agency by practicing harmful or unscrupulous business practices.
