Areas of Expertise

1. Pre-Litigation Recovery

We advise clients on the most appropriate course of action before legal proceedings begin. This includes issuing formal letters of demand, negotiating settlements, and advising on debt recovery strategy. In many cases, early engagement can result in prompt payment and reduced legal costs.

2. Litigation and Legal Proceedings

When litigation is required, we act swiftly and decisively through the appropriate court channels:

  • District Court — debts < €15,000
  • Circuit Court — debts > €15,000 and < €75,000
  • High Court — debts > €75,000

We manage all aspects of the litigation process, from issuing proceedings to representation in court, judgment applications, and beyond.

3. Judgment Applications

Where a debtor fails to respond or defend a claim, we seek judgment by default. In defended matters, we represent our clients robustly at hearings to secure court orders for payment.

4. Enforcement of Judgments

Securing a court judgment is often only part of the process. We are highly experienced in enforcement actions, including:

  • Instalment Order applications
  • Committal Proceedings
