Frequently Asked Questions
about Bristow & Sutor Bailiffs

Can Jacobs Debt Recovery Send Bailiffs to My House?

In certain cases, if court action has been initiated and debts persist, Jacobs Enforcement Bailiffs may be appointed by the courts to recover property and assets corresponding to the debt.

Entering your property is rare and is only permissible if a Liability Order has been issued by a magistrate on behalf of the local authority. For businesses, an unpaid fine from a Magistrate, County Court, or High Court is necessary.

Reasonable Force: Enforcement agencies can enter a property if they have been inside before, using ‘reasonable force’ to re-enter between 6 am and 9 pm.

Restrictions apply to items removable by bailiffs. Walking Possessions, governed by ‘Taking Control of Goods Regulations,’ can be taken, and a ‘Controlled Goods Agreement’ can be established for debt settlement. Certain essential items, such as bedding, refrigerators, medical equipment, and cookers, are exempt from seizure.
