The documents in this folder have been drafted to help businesses who are owed money by their customers. If you are in this position, the ideal place to start is the Guidance Notes: Debt Recovery and Taking Legal Action. These Guidance Notes run through possible courses of action when debts are outstanding. The Guidance Notes include reference to debt respite legislation which provides some protection from debt collection for certain individual debtors, and you will need to consider whether and how it applies before you take any steps aimed at obtaining payment.    

This folder is concerned with taking legal action. A wide range of letters and forms are available, including a letter before action, County Court claim form, other court forms and correspondence. These documents cover the whole process, from issuing a claim to receiving judgment and enforcing the court’s order against the customer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a letter before action, and do I have to send one? +
It is a final written warning that you will start court proceedings if the debt is not paid. Where the debtor is an individual or a sole trader, the Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims requires you to send a detailed Letter of Claim and give the debtor 30 days to respond before issuing a claim. Skipping the required steps can lead the court to penalise you on costs, so follow the protocol where it applies.
