Enforcing a foreign judgment in the UK is all about ensuring that a court decision from another country is recognized and upheld by a UK court. With Shergroup, we make sure the legal process is smooth and effective, helping you enforce judgments from abroad with ease. Now, with the UK no longer part of the European Union, we fall back on a variety of reciprocal treaties established over the years with countries across Europe and the Commonwealth. These agreements ensure that judgments from many jurisdictions are still enforceable in the UK. Shergroup’s London office is your starting point for this process, giving you access to our expertise in handling foreign judgments efficiently.
Whether you’re a judgment creditor or a legal representative, we’re here to help get your foreign judgment enforced quickly and professionally. Our service applies specifically to judgment debts transferred to England and Wales. For judgment debts where the debtor is in Scotland, Northern Ireland, or Eire, we can provide a transfer service through our trusted partners.
