I want to use the following technique for collecting on bad checks (non-sufficient funds) written to me.Advice?

Question by MickeyMouse: I want to use the following technique for collecting on bad checks (non-sufficient funds) written to me.Advice?
I saw an accountant’s contract where the clients signed an agreement. In this agreement is the following clause: “In event my check is returned for any reason, I authorize John Doe, CPA to debit from my checking account, the amount of the check plus $ 30 returned check fee.” If I used this clause in an agreement what would be the correct procedure I would use to debit the amount of the check plus $ 30 fee from the debtor’s checking account? Is there a form I should use? What is it called? Can I see a sample form online? I am in Calif. Thanks.

Getting authorization to debit from an already overdrawn account won’t do much good.

Perhaps a notice stating the you will take all cases of bad checks to small claims court might be more fruitful.
