High Court Enforcement Agents

Enforce your judgments with authority

When a County Court Judgment (CCJ) remains unpaid, turning to High Court Enforcement Agents (HCEAs) can be one of the most effective ways to recover what’s owed. Our High Court Enforcement service allows you to transfer your CCJ to the High Court, where our experienced agents will take swift action to enforce payment. With a proven track record and higher collection rates than traditional methods, our HCEAs work quickly and efficiently to help you recover outstanding debts.

As featured on "Can't Pay? We'll Take It Away!", Helpland specialises in converting your CCJ of over £600, issued within the last six years, into a High Court Writ of Control for enforcement. Unlike salaried County Court Bailiffs, HCEAs are incentivised to collect as their earnings depend on successful collections. This structure typically results in higher collection rates. Our HCEAs conduct a minimum of three visits, providing detailed reports after each one to keep you informed of progress. For more information or assistance, contact Helpland, and we’ll guide you through the process with expert advice and support.

What is the High Court Enforcement Agents Service?

High Court Enforcement Agents (HCEAs) are specially authorized officers who enforce High Court orders, including unpaid County Court Judgments (CCJs) over £600. Once a Writ of Control is obtained from the High Court, HCEAs have the legal authority to seize assets, recover debts, and ensure your judgment is enforced. Unlike County Court Bailiffs, HCEAs operate on a results-driven basis, meaning they act quickly and are incentivized to recover debts. Our service manages the entire process, from transferring your CCJ to the High Court to executing the writ for debt recovery.

How It Works

1. CCJ Review and Writ Application: We start by reviewing your County Court Judgment (CCJ) to ensure it qualifies for High Court enforcement. If the debt exceeds £600 and is less than six years old, we apply for a Writ of Control to authorize the enforcement process.
2. Writ of Control Issuance: Once the writ is issued, the High Court Enforcement Agents (HCEAs) are empowered to visit the debtor’s property, seize assets, or arrange for payment.
3. Enforcement Process: HCEAs will make at least three visits to the debtor’s property. After each visit, we provide you with a detailed report outlining the progress made in recovering the debt.
4. Successful Recovery: If enforcement is successful, the full debt is recovered, including accrued interest at 8% annually, and enforcement fees. Any assets seized may be sold to settle the debt if payment is not made.
5. If Enforcement is Unsuccessful: If the debtor has insufficient assets or enforcement fails, the writ remains active for a year, allowing further attempts to recover the debt within that time frame.

Why Choose Us?

• Higher Success Rates: Our High Court Enforcement Agents have higher recovery rates than County Court Bailiffs due to their results-driven structure and broader powers.
• Comprehensive Service: From applying for the Writ of Control to overseeing enforcement visits, we manage the entire process, ensuring a seamless experience for you.
• Refundable Fees: The initial fee covers the cost of obtaining the writ and the Compliance Abortive Fee. If enforcement is successful, these costs are recovered from the debtor.
• Regular Updates: We provide you with detailed reports after each enforcement visit, so you are kept informed at every step of the process.
• Cost-Effective: With enforcement costs typically recovered from the debtor, you face minimal financial risk when initiating enforcement.

Cost Implications?

• Initial Fee: For just £499.00, we handle the acquisition of the Writ of Control and the Compliance Abortive Fee. These charges are fully refundable should the enforcement prove successful.
• Debtor Pays Upon Success: Should enforcement be successful, we'll recover the entire judgement debt, accrue interest at an annual rate of 8%, and reclaim *£111.75p towards costs incurred in issuing the writ.
• In Case of Unsuccessful Enforcement: If the enforcement does not result in recovery, or if the debtor’s assets are insufficient, remember that you have a year to action your writ and six years on a judgement. This gives us ample opportunity to attempt enforcement in a subsequent year.
