We were notified by a factoring company that a subcontractor had factored an invoice we owed the subcontractor. The payment terms were with in our payment policy period. The subcontractor took the funds from the factoring company and did not pay his suppliers or his subcontractors. We are now getting demand letters for the factoring company to pay the invoice however we are not paying them but using the mobey to pay the outstanding invoices the subcontractor owes. Do I have to pay the factoring company or offest the payments from what the subs owes?...Read More

I've re-read the article titled "Top invoice factoring companies for contractors in the US" a couple times now and don't see the criteria that was used to determine these to be the top companies. What sort of criteria was used to rank these 5 out of all the others out there? I see their advance amounts and rates, but why these 5? Do they have the best rate's? More upfront advance? What's this based on?...Read More

​We are general contractor. One of our subcontractors sold their receivables (invoice) to a financial services company. It looks like the subcontractor is really suffering and may be filing for bankruptcy soon. However, the financial services company is trying to get collect on the receivable from us. They (financial services company) just filed a UCC Financing Statement. In the past few weeks we were issuing joint checks to the subcontractor and their supplier. The financing company is asking us to remit all payments to them. Who do we pay? Does the financing company have rights against us if we didn't pay them? Does the sub have rights against us if we pay the financing company? What's the effect of the UCC statement and/or does the financing company somehow have the subcontractor's lien rights to protect them? ...Read More

Additionally, most notices require a signature from a representative. Should the document signer be from the company that did the work, or can it be my name representing the capital company....Read More
