A client came to Samuel Jr. looking to get some advice enforcing a 5.8-million-pound Judgement for a law-suit against a high-profile individual.
Counsel advised the client on enforcement strategy following a UK judgment originating from a foreign jurisdiction. The main challenges lay in the cross-border nature of the judgment and the complexity of securing UK-based assets, which were not easily identifiable or accessible. Each enforcement route—whether through charging orders, third-party debt orders, or orders for sale—carried distinct procedural and practical considerations, requiring a balanced assessment of risk, cost, and recoverability.
Judgment was secured against a member of the UAE royal family. Counsel advised on enforcement strategy and assisted in preparing and filing applications for a Third-Party Debt Order, including drafting a supporting witness statement.
In progressing enforcement, counsel managed client expectations and navigated resistance from a sophisticated opponent seeking to frustrate recovery of a multimillion-pound award.
