Types of Scenarios You May Need a Debt Recovery Solicitor
Debt recovery can involve a range of scenarios where professional legal intervention is beneficial, such as:
– High-Value Debts: Large sums of money owed where the stakes are high and require formal legal proceedings.
– Complex Cases: Situations involving disputes over the terms of the debt, or where multiple parties are involved.
– Unresponsive Debtors: Cases where the debtor is avoiding payment or not responding to communication attempts.
– International Debts: Recovering debts from individuals or businesses located in other countries, which may involve complex international laws.
The Debt Recovery Process
In simple terms, the debt recovery process can be broken down into 4 steps, as follows:
1. Initial Consultation: We begin by assessing your situation through a consultation where you provide details about the debt, the debtor, and any prior attempts to recover the debt. Based on this information, we advise on the best course of action.
2. Pre-Legal Actions: Before initiating legal proceedings, we undertake pre-legal actions such as sending formal demand letters and negotiating with the debtor to resolve the issue amicably.
3. Legal Proceedings: If pre-legal actions are unsuccessful, we may proceed with formal legal action. This could involve issuing a claim in the appropriate court, applying for a judgment, and potentially enforcing the judgment through various methods, such as obtaining a county court judgment (CCJ), garnishing wages, or seizing assets.
4. Enforcement: Once a judgment is obtained, we help enforce it. This can include various measures such as instructing bailiffs to collect the debt, applying for a charging order on property, or initiating other enforcement actions to secure payment.
