Debt Recovery Services

Our debt recovery service fee structure is based on the following fixed fee table for work carried out up to and including:

Taking instructions and sending letter before action	£50 +VAT
Drafting and issuing Claim form	£180 +VAT
Judgment in default application (if appropriate)	£90 +VAT
Dealing with Court directions, including allocation to Court track	£300 +VAT
Attending Mediation appointments	£220 +VAT
Preparation and attending a Trial/Final Hearing	£500 +VAT
Enforcement of a Judgment*	£240 +VAT

All prices are exclusive of Court Fees

^*Per method of enforcement chosen

Depending on the individual case, matters usually take from several days to several months from receipt of instructions from you to receipt of payment from the other side, depending on whether or not it is necessary to issue a claim. This is on the basis that the other side pays promptly on receipt of Judgement in default. If enforcement action is needed, the matter will take longer to resolve.
