A UCC filing, also known as a UCC Financing Statement or UCC-1, is a document filed with the Secretary of the State which serves as public notice of a creditor’s security interest in certain collateral owned by their customer.

Why File a UCC-1?

Protection. Yes, in an ideal business relationship, bills are paid in full and on time – every time. But in a credit-based economy, there is little chance for ideals. File UCCs to protect A/R, inventory and equipment, reduce write-offs and create sales opportunities.
