High Court
Large claims (over £50,000) or claims involving complex areas of law should be brought in by the High Court.
Claims For Money
From the beginning of our instruction, we can explain the course that a claim will take, we will help you to prepare the documents, draft witness statements and advise on any experts that may be necessary.
Court Protection
Although we have an experienced team of barristers we can call on, we often undertake advocacy ourselves if it provides a more cost effective service to our clients.
High Court is also where we can apply for other types of proceeding, such as injunctions and freezing orders. We also use the High Court to enforce judgments, even those obtained in the County Court, as High Court Sheriffs can be more effective that County Court Bailiffs.
Types Of Claim
Court proceeding can cover a wide range of disputes, these can include;
- Debt Collection
- Breach of Contract
- Negligence
- Personal injury
- Insolvency
- Bankruptcy
- Injunctions
- Freezing Orders
Enforcement
Once you have a judgment, if the defendant refuses to pay, actions may need to be taken to recover your funds. We are experienced in all forms of enforcement process including seizing goods, freezing bank accounts, liquidating companies and bankrupting individuals.
