Shergroup, the specialist enforcement company, is the first company of its kind to be appointed as a Corporate Partner of the ICM. The corporate partnership will provide all ICM Members with access to a partner with expertise in public and private sector enforcement specifically through innovative online solutions. 

Online transfer of judgments
Provided your judgment is over £600 and does not relate to a Consumer Credit Agreement, you can use Sherforce, Shergroup's enforcement division, to enforce the Court's judgment.

To start the process all you have to do is complete our log in to the Members' Area of the ICM website and complete the online Instruction Form here, paying the Court's fee online of £60 with your credit or debit card.

Sherforce will instruct its legal team, The Sheriffs Lodgment Centre^®, to transfer the judgment to the High Court. This takes between 4 - 21 days depending on the length of time taken by the county court to complete the paperwork in its part of the process.

Once transferred, a local Sherforce Enforcement Officer, acting on the direct authority of an Authorised High Court Enforcement Officer, will attend at the debtor's address. Sherforce aims to complete this within 5 days of the Writ being issued in the High Court.

As a Sherforce client, you will be assigned a Client Relationship Manager, who will look after any Writ you place with Sherforce for enforcement. You will also be given a unique login and password to the SHERPA system so you can keep track on the progress of your Writ in your own time and without having to chase Sherforce for updates.

To begin the transfer process click on the above link and you will be taken to Sherforce's easy online instruction form. For help call 0845 890 9200.
