Court debt recovery and enforcement of receivables for businesses

I handle court debt recovery from the payment demand to bailiff enforcement for companies with recurring receivables, lenders and financial institutions, debt funds and servicers, and property managers with rent arrears. I do not represent consumers and do not take on one-off small receivables. I combine proceedings with the firm's own LegalTech tools.

Process

How court debt recovery works

Scope and order depend on the claim, the documents and the debtor's situation.

Case preparation

I analyse documents and data, then prepare the payment demand, which often leads to payment or a settlement without a court.

Electronic Writ-of-Payment Proceedings (EPU)

EPU, the e-court procedure, suits documented claims unlikely to be disputed, especially at volume. If the debtor objects, the e-court discontinues the proceedings and the creditor has three months to file the claim in ordinary proceedings while keeping the effects of the original filing; I then assess whether to continue. EPU covers claims that fell due within three years before filing.

Civil court proceedings

Disputed matters go to the ordinary civil court. I prepare the claim, represent you at hearings and keep track of deadlines.

Enforceability clause

Enforcement requires an enforcement title, that is an enforceable title with an enforceability clause. For EPU payment orders the court adds the clause of its own motion once the order is final; in other cases I file the motion. I handle this stage so enforcement can start without delay.

Bailiff enforcement and settlements

Enforcement of receivables begins with a motion to a bailiff. I monitor it, handle returns and discontinuances, and account for recoveries as agreed.

Status reporting

I report statuses in a format that suits your systems.

According to the law firm's internal statistics for 2025, in the consumer loan segment, payment orders were issued in more than 95% of matters filed in Electronic Writ-of-Payment Proceedings. The data concerns that specific segment and period; it is not a forecast of outcomes in other matters.
