Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
On 25 March I won a default judgment against my former house and contents insurer for 3 grand. I have not heard from them yet, but they have been real jerks throughout the whole process so I am expecting the worst. Nevertheless, they are a large and established institution, so presumably do have to broadly adhere to a CCJ, don't they?
What is their incentive for paying my claim as per the CCJ I have won against them? If they don't, what's the best way of enforcing it, a warrant of execution or third party debt order? What are the merits and pitfalls of each? (To be honest, the image of bailiff trotting off to their head office and scooping up computers and office chairs to sell at auction is priceless. Well worth the 55 quid court fee).
