Debt Collection

We act for both individuals and businesses in the collection of bad debts. We will discuss with you the options available having regard to the amount of the debt due, whether the claim is complicated or likely to be disputed and we will provide an estimate of the legal costs involved at every stage of the proceedings.

It is usual to send a warning letter to the debtor and if payment is not forthcoming, consideration needs to be given as to whether Court proceedings should be instituted or whether Insolvency proceedings are more appropriate.

If the debt is less than £5,000, this would usually be dealt with in the Small Claims Court.

If you obtain a County Court judgment against a debtor, we will advise you upon the most effective way of enforcing that judgment.
