Residential Debt Collection Visits to resume

High Court Enforcement Officers will commence visits to residential properties, working through a huge backlog of enforcement orders dating back to March 2020.

The restrictions on visits had been for residential addresses for individual debtors. This was following amendments in the Taking Control of Goods and Certification of Enforcement Agents (Amendment) (No.2) (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020. There were previously no restrictions on enforcing judgments against businesses.

This is welcome relief for clients that are waiting for enforcement to take place against individual debtors who evade payment.

Should you have an unpaid judgment against either an individual or company please do not hesitate to contact us for our specialised advice in enforcing the judgment and ultimately obtaining payment.
