Do you encounter debtors who struggle to pay your invoices on time, or at all?
Many businesses operate with an “acceptable” level of debtors. When outstanding sums are not properly managed, though, the adverse effect on your business can spiral, disrupting cash flow, incurring costs and threatening profit margins.
Debt recovery itself comes at a price: we understand it is a cost your business will want to minimize, if not avoid. We are happy to advise on practical procedures which lead to steady collections and, in turn, to growth and development for your business.
We can advise on key steps to take, to better manage the risk of bad debts.
If, nonetheless, you face debtors, we can step in for you. We recognise that the cost of legal intervention must be proportionate to the amount of the debt, and are proud of our long-standing reputation for delivering an effective, low cost, fixed price recovery service.
Clients often seek our advice having invested time and energy chasing debtors themselves, without recovering payment. Frequently, just one letter of demand from us results in payment in full, often with interest and costs.
Our legal team will help you throughout the debt recovery journey, offering clear advice, updates, and guidance to help you make informed decisions.

Initial assessment and fixed fee quote, pre action correspondence, negotiation and communication, court proceedings, enforcement of judgements.
We offer an initial review of your case and can often provide a fixed-fee service for straightforward recover matters. This gives you clear, upfront pricing and control over your costs from the outset.
If there’s a dispute or the debtor responds, we can negotiate on your behalf to reach a settlement or agree on a payment plan. We handle all correspondence and legal compliance to ensure the matter progresses efficiently.
If you secure a County Court Judgment (CCJ) and the debtor still doesn’t pay, we can take enforcement action. This may include instructing bailiffs (High Court Enforcement Officers), applying for a charging order against property, or seeking an attachment of earnings.
Often, a well-drafted solicitor’s letter before action (LBA) is enough to prompt payment. Our firm issues a formal demand to the debtor, outlining the amount owed, the basis for the claim, and a deadline for payment.
If the debtor fails to respond or refuses to pay, we can issue a claim in the County Court. We prepare all the documentation and represent you throughout the process including, if necessary, a trial in the County Court
