              <p><strong>Credit Collection Partners</strong> (CCP) was built on the foundation of <strong>Service, Compliance, and Results</strong>.  These are the principles that have made CCP a thriving company since our inception in 1938.  We are large enough to ensure maximum production, yet small enough to give each client the service and attention they expect and deserve.  Unlike some of our larger competitors, CCP never uses offshore or nearshore agents for our contracts. All services will be conducted using staff based in the United States.</p>
              <p>CCP understands the unequivocal necessity for accuracy, integrity, and professionalism.  These doctrines, along with our customer service support and accessibility have earned us an exemplary reputation.</p>
              <p>Application of these principles has made CCP experts in the field of government collections, with government clients in over three-fourth the State of Illinois and several municipal courts and parishes in Louisiana.  These same standards are also practiced by our dedicated staff specializing in healthcare collections.</p>
              <p>There are other companies that do what we do, but there are none that do it the way CCP does!</p>

                    Calling times to account holders are managed by our collection software, ensuring that call
                    schedules are always compliant with the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and well
                    within the scope of the Bureau of Consumer Protection.

                    CCP must work with third-party data vendors to obtain current contact information. When third-
                    party data provided to CCP results in an error we immediately remove the incorrect data from
                    our system and never contacted again.
                    <br/><br/>
                    CCP responds to account holders in a professional and timely manner, typically within 24 hours
                    of receiving an inquiry. Our approach to resolving account holder inquiries explains why our
                    overall satisfaction rate is among the best in the industry and the State of Illinois.
