Creditor Services covers the practical and regulatory tasks a solicitor undertakes to recover money owed. It includes guiding clients through pre-action steps, issuing and pursuing County Court or High Court proceedings, and securing judgments. A solicitor also organises enforcement actions such as warrants for seizure, charging orders, attachment of earnings, and insolvency remedies where appropriate, while coordinating with insolvency practitioners and tracing debtors. The aim is to protect the creditor’s position and recover the debt efficiently within the current rules.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
A solicitor drafts notices of claim and court documents, advises on appropriate enforcement routes, and coordinates with enforcement agents and trustees in bankruptcy or liquidation. They manage court deadlines, apply for judgments or decrees, consider interim remedies, and respond to debtor disclosures. They also review fee risk, ensure compliance with the Civil Procedure Rules, and liaise with insolvency practitioners when a debtor enters formal proceedings.
