Southwest Recovery Services is expanding their debt collection assistance offerings in the face of a potentially catastrophic financial landscape in the state of Florida.
-- Responding to rapidly rising business debt in Florida, Southwest Recovery Services is now offering guidance and direct assistance for those engaging in collection action. The expansion has been spurred on by the overwhelming prevalence of MCA debt in the state which, according to a Delancey Street report, now totals third-highest in the country after New York and California.

This MCA debt is particularly harmful to Florida businesses given the dangerously high interest rates these loans can pose, exceeding, in some cases, 200% APR. Coverage published by Factor Law underscores the compounding effects of this debt; businesses now exist at the crux of both a mounting legal push by creditors to build pressure toward repayment, and the reality that repayment can critically disrupt cash flow during critical periods of growth.
In 2025 alone, over 200 Florida businesses filed for bankruptcy as a direct result of MCA collection efforts, Bloomberg reporter Alex Wolf found. This places the state second nationally in Chapter 7 and 11 bankruptcy, a crisis which reverberates beyond the loan holders and extends to all businesses serving the B2B sector.
Options remain limited for those seeking to recover B2B debt in the current environment, placing unique pressure on debt collectors. Southwest Recovery Services points out in a recent report that the FDCPA, which governs debt collection on a national scale, does not apply in Florida; rather, collectors must abide by the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act, which provides sweeping and far stricter guidelines for both in-house and outsourced debt collection efforts.
Southwest Recovery Services goes on to explain that lenders have a legal right to enforce the terms of any loan agreement, provided the agreement meets all criteria laid out in the FCCPA. With this in mind, lenders are encouraged to build agreements that benefit their own operation while also establishing a realistic payment timeline, minimizing cash flow disruptions for both parties even as MCA debt continues to rise.
