This area covers the recognition and enforcement of judgments given in courts outside England and Wales, and the enforcement of English and Welsh judgments abroad. It includes assessing whether a foreign judgment can be recognised, converting it into a form enforceable in England and Wales, and pursuing remedies such as attachment of earnings, charging orders, or other enforcement measures where appropriate. A solicitor in this field advises on procedural routes, Hague and EU frameworks where applicable, and coordinates with counterpart regimes to secure payment or relief for clients with cross‑border disputes.
Enforcement often hinges on the precise regime governing cross‑border judgments, including registration in the English system under applicable treaties or domestic rules, and potential challenges to recognition. A solicitor manages the steps to obtain a usable enforceable order, identifies the correct enforcement route (e.g., writs, attachment, or other execution mechanisms), gathers necessary documentary proof, engages with courts and party counterparts, and supervises the process to secure timely, lawful satisfaction of the judgment while complying with regulatory and fiduciary duties.
