Obtaining a judgment or court order against your debtor (now referred to as the judgment debtor) is an important step, but it doesn't guarantee payment of the judgment debt.
In cases where the judgment debtor fails or refuses to pay, you may need to pursue the enforcement of the judgment to recover the debt. This requires careful consideration of the debtor's income and assets before proceeding to the next level.
While you have the option to enforce the judgment yourself through the collections department of the court, this process can be lengthy and may not always yield favorable results unless you have insider knowledge. Alternatively, you can engage a solicitor, but the court only awards a percentage of the solicitor's actual legal costs, potentially leaving you out of pocket.
We specialise in the enforcement of judgments and can handle the entire process on your behalf. Our experienced team understands the intricacies of enforcement and has extensive knowledge of the trade secrets. When the judgment debtor fails or neglects to pay the judgment debt, we can initiate enforcement actions in collaboration with our contracted barristers and solicitors.
This includes pursuing statutory demands and liquidation for companies, as well as bankruptcy and creditors' applications for individuals. Our strategic methods demonstrate your commitment to recovering the judgment debt, leading to faster payments, reduced disputes, and higher success rates.
We work closely with a network of barristers, solicitors, liquidators, and receivers who, along with our expert collections team and in-house solicitor, provide valuable advice and guidance for making informed decisions.
Our partners can assist with the preparation and filing of all District and High Court enforcement applications, attend financial assessment hearings, and initiate liquidation and/or bankruptcy proceedings. We offer competitive pricing compared to engaging a solicitor independently.
The enforcement of judgments can be complex and confusing, but you have a debtor judgment that remains unpaid. Allow Secure Collections to handle everything on your behalf.
