PRESS RELEASE
BOROUGH OF HATBORO HIRES PORTNOFF LAW ASSOCIATES
TO COLLECT DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS
In an effort to maximize the collection of its unpaid real estate taxes and trash fee accounts, the Borough of Hatboro has hired the law firm of Portnoff Law Associates, Ltd. to collect its delinquent accounts. Representing over 200 municipal clients across Pennsylvania, Portnoff utilizes state law that allows for the costs of collection to be imposed upon the delinquent property owner, creating immediate incentive to make payment, and reducing the burden of administrative time and collection costs on the Borough of Hatboro and its customers.
Each delinquent property owner will receive a notice setting forth the balance due. Recipients of the notice will be afforded a 30-day grace period within which to make payment arrangements. Property owners with large balances will be permitted to enter into payment arrangements of up to six months, and a hardship program allowing for longer payment terms will be available to owner occupants experiencing financial hardship.
After the grace period ends, Portnoff Law Associates will proceed with collection of the unresolved accounts. Delinquent property owners who have failed to make payment arrangements or request hardship accommodations will be assessed the legal fees and costs associated with the collection of their accounts.
The Borough of Hatboro urges property owners who have not yet paid their delinquent real estate taxes or trash fees to contact Portnoff Law Associates promptly upon receipt of the notice to avoid additional charges.
