Enforcement Applications cover the process of seeking to enforce court judgments or orders, typically by obtaining a warrant or other order that allows a court or enforcement agent to recover money or assets. In England, solicitors draft and lodge applications to enforce judgments, apply for warrants of control (bailiff enforcement), charging orders, and related orders, and advise on steps such as attachment of earnings or seizure of goods. They also handle applications to set aside or vary enforcement, and communicate with judgment creditors, debtors, and enforcement officers through the court system, usually the County Court and High Court depending on the underlying remedy.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
Enforcement applications involve specific procedures, the use of enforcement tools such as warrants of control and charging orders, and interaction with enforcement agents governed by the taking control of goods regime. The solicitor's role includes ensuring correct court forms are filed, coordinating with the enforcement officer, applying for relief from sanctions if needed, and addressing any challenges from the debtor, such as set-aside applications or appeals.
