Service
Litigation
Court-based recovery of contested and high-value balances, managed end to end with instructed counsel.
Service overview
What this service covers
Where negotiation has been exhausted or the counterparty is deliberately non-responsive, UDRA coordinates litigation through instructed local counsel. We prepare the evidential file, manage the commercial decision-making and keep you informed of cost, timeline and realistic prospects at every stage.
Who this service is for
- Creditors holding substantial, well-documented balances
- Institutions with contested or defended claims
- Businesses facing deliberate non-payment
- Clients requiring enforcement of an existing judgment
Key challenges addressed
The problems this service is built to resolve
Cost exposure without clear prospects
Litigation is only rational where the balance, evidence and debtor solvency justify the spend.
Incomplete evidential files
Claims fail on documentation gaps far more often than on the underlying merits.
Enforcement after judgment
A judgment is not a recovery; locating and realising assets is a separate discipline.
Multiple counsel and jurisdictions
Uncoordinated instructions produce duplicated cost and inconsistent strategy.
Our approach
How UDRA delivers this service
Each stage is documented, and no stage proceeds beyond the authority you have granted.
- 01
Merits and solvency assessment
We test the claim, the documentation and the debtor's ability to pay before recommending proceedings.
- 02
Evidential file preparation
Contracts, invoices, statements and correspondence are assembled into a litigation-ready bundle.
- 03
Counsel instruction and oversight
We instruct appropriate local counsel, agree scope and fees, and manage the matter commercially.
- 04
Judgment and enforcement
We pursue enforcement, asset realisation and post-judgment settlement where that is faster.
Key benefits
