Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long does it typically take to collect an employment tribunal award?

Timeline varies based on case complexity and debtor circumstances. Simple cases may resolve within 4–6 weeks, while more complex situations can take several months. We prioritize speedy recovery while ensuring all legal requirements are met.

What makes employment award enforcement different from other debt collection?

Employment tribunal awards have unique legal considerations and enforcement pathways. Our specialized service addresses these specific challenges with expertise in both employment law and enforcement procedures.

What if the employer/respondent claims they cannot pay?

We conduct thorough asset investigations to verify such claims. If legitimate financial hardship exists, we can negotiate payment plans. If assets are discovered, we can pursue enforcement against those assets.

What information do I need to provide to start the enforcement process?

You’ll need to provide your tribunal judgment or ACAS settlement agreement, any correspondence with the respondent regarding payment, and any information you have about the respondent’s assets or business operations.

What are the costs involved in enforcing an employment tribunal award?

We offer fixed fee enforcement packages specifically designed for tribunal awards, providing cost certainty from the outset. The exact fee structure depends on the award amount and complexity of your case.

Can you enforce awards against companies that have ceased trading?

This depends on several factors. If the company has genuinely ceased trading with no assets, recovery may be challenging. However, we can investigate whether the company has been improperly wound up to avoid payment or if directors have personal liability.

What happens if the enforcement is unsuccessful?

We’ll provide a detailed explanation of why recovery wasn’t possible and discuss alternative options. In some cases, this might include pursuing directors personally or exploring insolvency proceedings.

Can I enforce an award if the respondent is outside the UK?

Yes, but international enforcement adds complexity. We have partnerships with international recovery specialists to pursue cross-border enforcement when viable.

How frequently will I receive updates about my case?

Our online reporting system provides real-time access to case progress. Additionally, we provide scheduled progress reports and immediate updates for significant developments.

What’s the difference between enforcing an ACAS settlement and a tribunal judgment?

ACAS settlements (COT3 agreements) and tribunal judgments follow slightly different enforcement pathways. We’re experienced with both types and will advise on the specific requirements for your situation.
