About Us

Giles founded Payfor to do one thing well: get businesses paid when a debtor has decided not to cooperate. He brings four skills to every matter, each sharpened over two decades: negotiation, dispute resolution, settlement and legal recovery. He applies them globally, with particular depth in England, the United States and the Middle East, using whichever methods and jurisdictions give his clients the strongest hand.

Payfor reflects how he believes these cases should be handled. Most disputes do not fail on legal merit. They fail because the wrong pressure is applied. So Payfor combines commercial leverage with legal recovery under one roof, rather than passing clients between a collections agency and a law firm. Giles runs every meaningful matter personally, from first appraisal to settlement, supported by a determined team based in Ukraine and a vetted network of counsel across the jurisdictions where Payfor works.

The results speak plainly. Giles maintains a high success rate across hundreds of matters, clients return each time a new debt arises, and satisfied clients regularly refer new business on the strength of his work. Most of Payfor’s recoveries now begin with repeat business or a recommendation, which is the clearest measure of a job done properly.
