Announcement July 2025
CollectAU is proud to announce the next chapter of growth. Following a strategic review of its business mix, Maddocks has decided that it will transition its debt recovery business, Maddocks Recoveries, to CollectAU.
Maddocks is partnering with CollectAU and will transfer the Maddocks Recoveries business activities to CollectAU Pty Ltd and its legal practice associate, LawyersAU Pty Ltd as of 1st July 2025.
In selecting CollectAU as their long-term partner for collections, Maddocks have been particularly sensitive to the requirements of Local Government clients as well as general client requirements. CollectAU has a significant presence in the sector, with an outstanding reputation and record for the highest levels of service and compliance in this sensitive and dynamic area, sharing the Maddocks vision for service through partnerships with clients and staff.
To ensure continuity, key and experienced personnel from Maddocks Recoveries are joining the CollectAU team underlining the commitment to a smooth and seamless transition. This will result in a strong, experienced and larger team to deliver services across the combined client base.
Maddocks will continue their delivery of legal services to the Local Government and Government sectors outside the Rate and Debt recovery specialisations.
This transaction enhances both businesses and delivers a truly innovative realisation of the benefits of specialisation in this sensitive area. Both organisations are working closely together to ensure a seamless transition, with the aim to minimise any service interruption.
The interests of ratepayers, with respect to Hardship, Payment Options and Compliance are enhanced by the business processes of these industry leading, long term experienced and technically advanced businesses.
