Duncan Lewis
I am a Solicitor in the Commercial and Civil Litigation Department at Duncan Lewis Solicitors.

I have significant experience in a wide variety of commercial and civil litigation claims, particularly those involving commercial disputes, disputes arising under a contract, misrepresentation cases, insolvency, and professional negligence matters. I am also experienced in dealing with property related disputes especially those involving disputes over the ownership of a property (under the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996). I have represented parties in disputes arising from repairing obligations, service charges, deposits, and other contractual terms in tenancy agreement and leases.

I have acted for both claimants and defendants under various funding arrangements. I am commercially aware of the need to resolve disputes for clients swiftly and efficiently.

I joined Duncan Lewis in April 2015 as a Caseworker and completed my training contract in the Commercial and Civil Litigation Department.

I am also fluent in written and spoken Polish.

The procedural detail summarised in this Practice Note derives from the legislation that underpins the Taking Control of Goods regime—for help navigating that framework effectively and efficiently, see Practice Note: Finding your way through the Taking Control of Goods legislation in practice. Debt recovery through a High Court Enforcement Officer (HCEO) is divided into four distinct stages, with fees allocated to every stage accordingly, respectively. The HCEO may recover specified fixed fees, set out in The Taking Control of Goods (Fees) Regulations 2014, SI 2014/1 (the Fees Regulations)—see Practice Note: Taking control of goods—fees of the enforcement agent for reference. Note: this Practice Note addresses the enforcement of writs of control specifically only herein. Although many aspects of the process for warrants of control are similar, differences remain. For advice on enforcing a warrant of control, consult Practice Note: Enforcing a warrant of control. When does the enforcement...

Provided they have been certified as enforcement agents pursuant to section 63(2) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 (TCEA 2007), they are authorised to take control of goods under writs of control (TCEA 2007, Sch 12, para 2).
