Enoch Evans LLP offer a specialist debt recovery service that offers a quality low cost solution for the recovery of non-disputed debts. Attempting to recover bad debts can be frustrating and time consuming but by combining legal expertise with computerised case management systems, Enoch Evans LLP can help.
Many clients have already felt a positive effect on their cashflows. The procedure is as follows:
Letter before action
Enoch Evans LLP recommend taking positive action as early as possible. A letter will be sent to the debtor requesting payment and stating that failure to do so will result in Court Action.
STEP 1.
Court Proceedings
Experience shows that most debtors will pay the debt when they receive the letter. If not, a claim can be made on your behalf through the local County Court. If the debtor still fails to pay, the Court can be asked for judgement to be entered.
STEP 2.
Enforcement
If the debtor still does not pay, even after a Court order, Enoch Evans LLP can proceed with standard enforcement action. The Country Court Bailiff (or the High Court Enforcement Officer) can be instructed by Enoch Evans LLP.
Cash Flow improvement
The debt recovery team at Enoch Evans LLP provides a quality low cost solution to the recovery of non-disputed debts. Systems can also be set up that will help you avoid bad debts.
Prevention is better than cure
Giving credit in some form is usually unavoidable, but spending a little time researching the customer’s ability to pay can save a lot of effort and expense later and avoid that lucrative new deal turning into a massive liability.
Bespoke strategy
Enoch Evans LLP understand that each client is unique. A member of the debt recovery team will tailor the strategy taken in your matter to ensure your needs are met.
Terms and conditions of trading
Enoch Evans LLP can ensure that your terms of trading give you the best possible protection and assistance against a defaulting customer. Your terms of trading must be carefully drafted to ensure that they are enforceable. When entering into a major contract or if you have doubts about being paid promptly you may consider taking additional security from your customers. Advice can be given regarding the most appropriate course of action to help you secure your assets.
Disputes
Sometimes there may be a genuine dispute between you and your customer or supplier. In this case debt recovery procedures will not be appropriate. Enoch Evans LLP have an experienced team who specialise in handling a range of commercial disputes through negotiation, and if necessary, court action.
Court proceedings
Taking a customer to court is a last resort. However when it has to be done, you will want it done quickly and efficiently. Enoch Evans LLP will help and guide you.
