4. Bailiffs
Even after you get your order for possession – you can’t actually get possession of your property if they refuse to move out, until you have made a bailiffs appointment and they have formally evicted the tenants.

Note that you can also use the High Court Enforcement Officers but the process is more expensive and you need leave of the court. If you want to use the High Court service we suggest you use solicitors.
These are all member only services. Items 3 and 4 are for Business Level members only.
The Landlord Law Recommended Solicitors
Although many landlords have successfully brought a claim for eviction through the courts on their own, it is not as straightforward as many think and a mistake can set your claim back for many months – and you may need to start again from the beginning (in which case you could be vulnerable to an order that you pay your tenants’ legal fees).
We, therefore, have a list of recommended solicitors who are experienced in this work and who can be instructed online via the special Landlord Law (members only) forms for fixed fees.
