We're proud to be an industry leader and our commitment to outstanding customer service and tactful enforcement has solidified our position since 2001.

Our Commitment to Ethical High Court Enforcement
At the core of DCBL’s ethos is an unwavering commitment to ethical practices. Our participation in the popular TV show underscores our transparent and principled approach. Our team understands the delicate balance between enforcing judgments and upholding the dignity of all parties involved.

Trusted Nationwide Service with 5 Regional Offices
DCBL operates through five regional offices, strategically placed across the UK. This enables us to enforce County Court Judgments (CCJs) and High Court Writs of Control efficiently. Our infrastructure, coupled with local knowledge and administrative support, ensures a seamless and unrivaled service.

Understanding High Court Enforcement Officers (HCEOs)
High Court Enforcement Officers, authorized by the Lord Chancellor, bear the responsibility of enforcing judgments throughout England and Wales. This often involves High Court Officers taking control of goods or repossessing property. HCEOs can delegate this authority to Agents, empowering them to execute High Court Writs.

Our High Court Enforcement Services
DCBL’s suite of services extends beyond traditional enforcement. We pride ourselves on providing one complete solution for Debt Collection & High Court Enforcement.

Instruct DCBL for High Court Enforcement
We pride ourselves on providing effective and compliant High Court Enforcement services, from CRAR to Traveller Removal, meaning we ensure your reputation is protected as well as our own.

Traveller Removal
With a 100% success rate, DCBL's expert team swiftly handles Traveller removal. Court forms are completed & legal notices served promptly, providing a 24-hour window for compliance before bailiff’s powers are utilised.

Upon receipt of your instruction, we will generate and serve the required Legal Notice to the individuals on site (normally on the same day) which gives them 24 hours to vacate. Our certificated agents have a great deal of experience in dealing with Travellers.

Commercial Rent Arrears Recovery (CRAR)
Our in-depth understanding of CRAR, coupled with a strategic approach, ensures swift and favourable results.

Our nationwide teams of certificated Enforcement Agents are all highly skilled in dealing with tenants in the recovery of Commercial Rent Arrears. They always represent our clients in the best light possible, ensuring the Landlord/Tenant relationship remains intact.

Residential Possession
We understand the cost of living has increased and the amount owed in rental arrears can become unmanageable for tenants.

For landlords seeking to regain possession of their property or land, DCBL facilitates the eviction process, whether it involves named tenants or squatters using a writ of possession. DCBL will only force entry as a last resort and when in line with the law.

Tribunal Award Enforcement
DCBL specializes in the efficient enforcement of Tribunal Awards (such as those awarded by an Employment Tribunal).

Our focus is on a quick resolution and our experienced teams are well versed in navigating the complexities of Tribunal Award Enforcement. Learn more about Tribunal Award Enforcement.

Commercial Lease Forfeiture
A solution for commercial landlords and agents, our experts provide an alternative to lengthy court proceedings through swift and efficient forfeiture of leases.

Money Order Judgment/CCJ
When county court money judgments are ignored, DCBL assists in transferring them to the High Court for enforcement, facilitating the recovery of any unpaid court judgment over £600.
