If you are thinking of issuing a county court claim - speak to us first. With our direct links to Money Claims On Line - and competitive pricing - we can take the stress out of issuing a claim and maximise your chances of success.
The cost of starting (or “issuing”) a county court claim is entirely dependent on what you are claiming.
In most cases, where an individual or company is claiming money, the court fee for issuing the claim depends on the amount that is being claimed. This can range anywhere from between £25.00 for a claim of less than £300.00, up to £10,000.00 for claims in excess if £200,000.00.
If your claim exceeds £100,000.00, then you cannot issue your claim online.
Please note that fees are periodically reviewed by the Government. An up to date list is found in the Government’s Guide “EX50 – Civil and Family court Fees” and can be found at https://www.gov.uk/court-fees-what-they-are
All fees should be paid by debit or credit card, cash, postal orders or cheques which should be made payable to “HM courts and Tribunals Service” or “HMCTS” for short.
If you do not pay the correct fee, your claim is unlikely to be issued.
