I discussed a matter with Jon as I was unsure of my available next steps. A tenant had left a property with damage and owing rent. I had some details and after discussion, Jon advised me to pursue a different route of recovery. This was a professional and knowledgeable service to go forward with a hopeful resolution. Great service

A potentially volatile situation was resolved peacefully thanks to the persuasive charm of the agents allied to firm professionalism which left no room for doubt that that if push came to shove the agents would achieve their objective.

After a 10 month civil court matter, using contact centres, my local court and county court baliffs to retrieve monies owed to me by the debtor, I found myself with no support and limited options, feeling like the debtor was getting off scott-free I contact West Country Baliffs after nearly losing all hope that I would ever have my money retrieved from the Debtor. The service i received is phenomenal! Within two months, the matter had been resolved, monies retrieved and a suitable payment plan was put in place for the remainder. My only wish is that I had used West Country Baliffs from the start of the process, which would have made my life so much easier! 10/10 would recommend. It also makes me feel secure that if I have to go through anything like this again, I can rely on this company to enforce.

We own a holiday let in Devon and have had no issues over 9 years until just recently where we had a booking from a major platform. These guests broke house rules with smoking in the property, noise and antisocial behaviour which resulted in one resident in the building having to leave and stay elsewhere. We were so stressed, distraught and sick with worry and the fear of loss of control over what was happening. We contacted West Country Bailiffs and Jon was so reassuring, informative and efficient. He told us exactly what we had to do which was firstly to terminate their booking contract as they had failed to adhere to our house rules which they signed up to at the time of booking. Jon and his team carried out the eviction of these 'guests' peacefully the next morning within 3 hours. They were so professional, efficient, sensitive and caring to everyone involved. We honestly can't praise them highly enough! We were kept informed and updated throughout and had a video and full report as well as safe delivery of keys to a designated person. They organised everything down to the last detail. We are beyond impressed with their outstanding service and so grateful and relieved at the outcome. Had we not contacted them as soon as we did, things could have gone so very differently. Thank you so much West Country Bailiffs! We 100% recommend your services to others who may well find themselves in a similar situation.

I had some reservations about using an enforcement agency because of the delicate matter I was having to deal with. I had several discussions with Jon before making an informed decision to employ their services. Their communication was excellent and extremely supportive to all parties involved in this matter. I was extremely happy with the service provided by Jon and his experienced bailiff Kai alongwith Jordan. Kai was extremely compassionate when dealing with the sensitive situation of regaining possession of a property and his reassuring manner was very much appreciated. The communication was first class and he kept in touch throughout the whole process. I am very glad I have used this company and its staff. I would recommend them to anyone needing a professional law enforcement company.

I recently used Jon and the team at West Country Bailiffs to help recover a long‑overdue County Court Judgment debt, and I’m really glad I did. After almost a year of getting nowhere with the debtor, broken promises, delays, and excuses, Jon talked me through the High Court enforcement process step by step. He was straightforward, clear about what to expect, and always honest about the options. What I appreciated most was how easy they were to deal with. They kept me updated without me having to chase, explained things in plain English, and moved quickly whenever something needed to be done. It’s clear they really know what they’re doing when it comes to enforcement. Thanks to Jon and his team, the debt is now finally being recovered, something I had pretty much written off at one point. If you’re a business or an individual trying to enforce a CCJ or recover unpaid debts, I’d definitely recommend West Country Bailiffs. They’re professional, efficient, and keep you in the loop from start to finish. Thanks again, Jon, your help has made a big difference.

High Court Enforcement – Frequently Asked Questions

What is High Court Enforcement?

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.


When can a judgment be transferred to the High Court?

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.


How long does the process take?

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.


Do you need a new court order to start High Court Enforcement?

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.


What happens if the debtor doesn’t pay?

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.


Can you enforce against businesses as well as individuals?

Yes. We enforce judgments against both private individuals and commercial entities.
Our enforcement agents are experienced in attending business premises to recover debts or seize company assets where necessary.


What types of judgments can be enforced?

We can enforce:

  • County Court Judgments (CCJs) over £600

  • High Court Judgments

  • Employment Tribunal Awards (once converted to a judgment)

  • Tribunal or arbitration awards registered in the High Court


What are the benefits of using High Court Enforcement over County Court Bailiffs?

High Court Enforcement Agents act much faster than County Court bailiffs and have greater powers under a Writ of Control.
Key benefits include:

  • Faster response times and national coverage

  • Authority to seize goods or collect payments on-site

  • Interest continues to accrue on your judgment until paid

  • Professional reporting and updates throughout the process


Will I be kept informed throughout the process?

Yes. You’ll receive regular updates at every stage, from the application for the writ, through notice service, to enforcement visits and outcomes.
We pride ourselves on transparency and clear communication.


How do I get started?

To begin, simply provide a copy of your County Court Judgment and confirm your instruction in writing.
Our finance team will then issue the invoice for the transfer fee, and once payment is received, your case will be passed to our Transfers Team to begin the High Court application.

Once the writ is issued, our enforcement agents will handle all further stages of the recovery process.
