Speak to our teamWhat Methods of CCJ Enforcement Are Available?
If the debtor hasn’t voluntarily paid following the court’s judgment, several enforcement options are available, depending on their circumstances:
We can apply to freeze funds held in a debtor’s bank account, which may then be used to pay off the debt.
If the debtor owns property, we can secure the debt against it — safeguarding your claim and potentially recovering funds when the property is sold.
In some cases, we may apply to the court to force the sale of a property to satisfy the debt.
This allows deductions to be made from the debtor’s salary to repay the debt gradually, ensuring consistent recovery over time.
This is useful when the debtor’s financial circumstances are unclear. They will be required to disclose their assets and income under oath, helping us identify the most viable enforcement method.
Other methods of enforcement:
– High Court Enforcement
– Warrant of Control

Act Quickly – Time Limits Apply
A CCJ remains enforceable for six (6) years from the date of judgment. After that, enforcement becomes more difficult and may require further court permission. The sooner you act, the greater your chance of recovery — especially if the debtor is trying to dissipate or hide assets.
Early intervention increases the likelihood of success and minimises cost and time delays.
0151 306 3694FAQs
What is a County Court Judgment (CCJ)?
A CCJ is a court order confirming that someone owes you money. It gives you the legal right to enforce repayment if the debtor does not pay voluntarily.
How long do I have to enforce a CCJ?
You have six (6) years from the date of the judgment to enforce it. After that, you will need special permission from the court.
Can I transfer my CCJ to the High Court?
Yes, if the debt is over £600 and is not regulated under the Consumer Credit Act, it can be transferred to the High Court for enforcement by HCEOs.
What if I don’t know the debtor’s assets?
We can apply for an order to attend court for questioning, which requires the debtor to disclose their income, assets, and employment details.
How much does enforcement cost?
Costs vary depending on the enforcement method used. We provide fixed-fee pricing where possible and will give you a clear quote before we begin.
What if enforcement fails?
Not every enforcement is successful, but we always assess the viability of your claim beforehand. If we believe your chances are low, we will tell you upfront.
