How we can recover a debt owed to you
There are several stages to recovering a debt, and we will aim to resolve the situation at the earliest stage possible:
- Pre-raising an action. We can issue effective demand letters which can recover the debt at this early stage. We can also do pre-suing investigations to assess the value of going to the next level.
- Raising a court action. Sometimes there is no alternative to raising legal proceedings. Our team is hugely experienced in debt recovery actions and can handle all aspects of the process for you, advising you of your options at each stage and keeping you up-dated throughout.
- Enforcement. If a debt remains outstanding following a court judgment, there are a range of enforcement options available to you to seek to secure payment. We will use our experience to steer you towards the most pragmatic solution in every instance.
Some businesses can be reluctant to pursue debts in Scotland due to concerns about locating a debtor, the complexity in court proceedings or the costs involved.

Guidance on cross-border debt recovery
Debt recovery procedures in Scotland are very different to those in other parts of the UK and beyond, with distinctive remedies, courts, procedures and approaches. It’s certainly not an area to leap into without advice if your debt recovery experience is primarily in another jurisdiction.
We work with companies or law firms in other parts of the UK and elsewhere that need assistance with recovering debts in Scotland. If that applies to you, please feel free to contact us to discuss what we could do to assist you.
