Legal Debt Recovery

Where standard debt recovery activity has not resulted in payment, legal action may provide the next route to recovery. Collection House works with specialist solicitors to progress appropriate casese, while keeping you informed and supporting you through the process.
Legal action is the next stage when normal collection hasn't worked.
Collection House remains involved and manages the process.
You don't have to work out the legal process, we can guide you through it.
When is legal debt recovery appropriate?
Most debts can be pursued through professional collection activity without the need for court proceedings. However, where a debtor fails to engage, disputes remain unresolved, or payment continues to be withheld, legal action may be considered.
We assess each case individually and will discuss the available options with you before progressing.

Payment hasn't been received
Previous collection activity hasn't resulted in payment.
The debtor isn't engaging
Attempts to resolve the matter has been unsuccessful.
A formal claim may be appropriate
There maybe grounds to pursue the debts through the courts.
You want to escalate recovery
You need a clear route beyond conventional collection activity.
