Types of High Court Writs


Through our High Court Enforcement Officer (HCEO), we can enforce a number of different types of writs. These include recovery of money owed, securing land and property as well as the rightful return of money and assets. These are as follows:

Writ of Control


This High Court Writ is the most issued in England and Wales for the recovery of money. The Writ of Control enables our Enforcement Agent to secure goods on site against the debt. Although a last resort and rarely required, in the event of non-payment these goods will be seized and sold at public auction.

Writ of Possession


This High Court Writ enables the recovery of property or land after an order for possession has been obtained. Often used for the eviction of trespassers, squatters or unauthorised persons from property and land.

Writ of Possession and Control


This combined writ for both possession of land and recovery of money owed to the claimant.

Writ of Restitution


Issued following the execution of a Writ of Possession where the property or land has been re-occupied by the original trespassers or squatters.

Writ of Delivery


Issued for the recovery of specific assets (and can be combined with a money element) based on the court order authorising delivery of these goods.

Employment Tribunal Award & ACAS Settlements


This remedy applies when you or your client have been successful at an Employment Tribunal or received an ACAS Settlement. However, the money awarded remains unpaid. Our Employment Tribunal Awards & ACAS High Court Enforcement service is very effective to recover payment of your outstanding award or settlement.
