High Court Enforcement is the process of enforcing a County Court Judgment (CCJ) or High Court Judgmentthrough a Writ of Control. This allows our High Court Enforcement Agents (HCEAs) (often known as bailiffs) to recover the outstanding judgment debt directly from the debtor or seize goods to the value of the debt.
At West Country Bailiffs, we specialise in High Court Enforcement and work swiftly to recover debts owed to individuals, landlords, and businesses across England and Wales.
Any County Court Judgment with a value of £600 or more (including costs and interest) can be transferred to the High Court for enforcement, provided it is not regulated by the Consumer Credit Act (CCA).
Once transferred, our enforcement agents can act on behalf of the claimant to recover the money owed.
Once we receive your instruction, we usually obtain the Writ of Control within 2–4 weeks.
After the writ is sealed by the High Court, a Notice of Enforcement is issued to the debtor, giving them 7 clear days to make payment in full.
If they fail to pay within that period, our certificated enforcement agents will attend their premises to take payment or seize goods.
No. You don’t need to start a new claim, we simply transfer your existing County Court Judgment to the High Court for enforcement.
Our team handles all paperwork and court applications on your behalf, saving you time and effort.
If the debtor fails to pay after the Notice of Enforcement, our agents will attend the property to take control of goods.
Goods may be removed and sold at auction to satisfy the debt, including enforcement costs, interest, and any further fees.
In cases where the debtor is insolvent or bankrupt, we will advise you immediately and assist you in registering your claim with the Official Receiver.
