Asset and debt recovery covers actions to reclaim money or assets from debtors where there is a valid claim, including identifying and securing assets, tracing debtors, and pursuing payment through the courts. A solicitor in this area drafts and issues claims, conducts negotiations, applies for court orders, and oversees enforcement steps such as charging orders, attachment of earnings, and bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings where appropriate. They also advise on options like turnover of assets, third-party debt orders, and interim remedies to protect a client’s position during proceedings.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The work involves evaluating the viability of claims, navigating court rules, and coordinating with enforcement agents and financial institutions to locate and recover assets. It also requires understanding priority of liabilities, potential set-offs, and the interplay with insolvency procedures, alongside managing compliance with court oversight and regulatory requirements.
