Turn Old Judgments Into Cash – Bring Your Dormant Judgment Back to Life

Revive your old court judgment and unlock the money you’re owed for just £499.00 plus VAT. This specialist service helps creditors obtain court permission to enforce judgments that are over six years old from the date of judgment. With expert legal preparation by Shergroup Legal and our proven track record meeting the “demonstrably just” standard, we maximize your chances of court approval and ultimate cash recovery.

Turn Old Judgments Into Cash With Expert Legal Support

Have you won a court judgment but waited more than six years to enforce it? Many creditors discover that old judgments—even valid ones—require special court permission under the Limitation Act 1980 to enforce after the six-year mark. Without expert legal assistance, your valuable judgment may remain permanently uncollected, leaving money on the table.

Shergroup’s Judgment Revival Service provides the complete solution by preparing your court application, crafting compelling legal arguments, and managing the entire process from application through to cash recovery.

FAQs

What is the minimum age for a judgment to need revival?

Any judgment over 6 years old from the date of judgment requires court permission to enforce under the Limitation Act 1980.

How long does the court permission process take?

The court decision process typically takes 4-12 weeks, depending on court workload. We provide regular updates throughout.

What are “exceptional circumstances” that justify late enforcement?

Courts look for circumstances beyond the creditor’s control, such as court errors, debtor concealment, administrative failures, or other compelling reasons why enforcement was delayed. Generic reasons like “forgot about it” are unlikely to succeed.

What happens if the court refuses permission?

The initial £499 plus VAT fee covers the professional preparation and application regardless of outcome. There is no success fee if permission is not granted. We conduct thorough initial assessments to maximize approval chances.

How is the success fee calculated?

The success fee is 15-20% of the gross funds actually recovered. In addition, if Shergroup Enforcement recovers the judgment, standard High Court Enforcement Officer (HCEO) fees apply. All success fees and enforcement fees are only payable when money is successfully collected from the debtor and you receive your cash.

Can any type of judgment be revived?

Most County Court and High Court judgments can be considered. However, cases must demonstrate exceptional circumstances and the court must be satisfied that enforcement is “demonstrably just.” Judgments relating to regulated credit agreements or those under installment orders may not be eligible.

What is Form N244 and why is it important?

Form N244 is the official court application for permission to enforce a judgment after 6 years. It must be accompanied by a detailed witness statement explaining the exceptional circumstances. Expert preparation by Shergroup Legal significantly increases success rates.

What enforcement options are available after permission is granted?

Once court permission is granted, all standard enforcement methods become available including Writs of Control (High Court Enforcement Officers), Attachment of Earnings Orders, Charging Orders, and Third-Party Debt Orders.

Is there a maximum age for judgments that can be revived?

While there is no strict maximum age, the longer the delay, the stronger the justification must be. We assess each case individually for viability based on the specific circumstances and elapsed time. Judgments under 12 years old generally have better prospects.

How do I get started with reviving my judgment?

Contact Shergroup at 020 3588 4240 or email [email protected] for a free initial consultation. We’ll assess your judgment and advise on the likelihood of obtaining court permission and turning your old judgment into cash.
