FAQs

Q: What can bailiffs legally take from my home?

Q: Can bailiffs break into my home at any time?

A: No, this is one of the biggest myths about enforcement. Bailiffs have specific rules about when and how they can enter premises. They cannot break in during their first visit and must follow proper legal procedures for peaceful entry.
