Despite best efforts by businesses
to implement credit management policies and efficient collection
methods, some customers just will not pay up.
Getting a county court judgment can be the easy part. For further
information go to www.courtservice.gov.uk
, where in the Forms and Leaflets section you will find a section
on Small Businesses and Commercial Debt, where useful leaflets can
be downloaded.
Sadly, some businesses find that despite going to the expense
of winning a judgement, the debtor still refuses to acknowledge
calls or letters.
It is advisable to check the credit worthiness of the debtor,
since non-payment could be an indication of financial difficulty.
if the debtor cannot afford the payment there would appear to be
little point in incurring further costs chasing the debt.
The creditor could take enforcement proceedings, they offer no
guarantees however.
