FAAIZ Law helps creditors recover money owed to them and advises both creditors and debtors on bankruptcy and corporate insolvency. Whether you are a business chasing unpaid invoices or an individual owed a personal debt, we provide a clear, structured approach to recovering what you are owed as efficiently as possible.
Our debt recovery work typically begins with a letter of demand and, where necessary, proceeds to court action to obtain judgment. Once judgment is obtained, we advise on and pursue the appropriate enforcement options, including judgment debtor summon, writs of seizure and sale, garnishee proceedings and other methods of execution against a debtor's assets.
For larger or unpaid judgment debts, we act in bankruptcy proceedings against individuals and in winding up proceedings against companies that are unable to pay their debts. We also advise debtors and companies facing such proceedings on their rights and the options available to them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I send a letter of demand first?
In most cases, yes. A letter of demand gives the debtor a final opportunity to pay and is usually expected before legal proceedings are filed.
What if the debtor still refuses to pay?
We can file a civil suit to obtain judgment and then enforce it, for example through seizure and sale of assets, garnishee proceedings, bankruptcy or winding up.
Can a company be wound up for an unpaid debt?
Yes. A creditor may serve a statutory demand under the Companies Act 2016 and, if the debt is not paid within the time allowed, petition the court to wind up the company.
I have received a bankruptcy notice. What should I do?
Act immediately. Strict time limits apply to challenge a bankruptcy notice, so you should seek advice as soon as it is served.
