A County Court Judgment (CCJ) is a court order issued when someone fails to repay a debt.
If the debt is not paid, the judgment is recorded on the public register for six years.
A CCJ search checks the official register to confirm whether a person or company has a judgment recorded against them.
This can help you assess financial risk before:
• Renting property
• Working with a new business
• Entering a contract
• Lending money
A CCJ search is suitable for anyone who needs clarity before making a financial or contractual decision. This includes:
• Landlords checking prospective tenants
• Employers carrying out background checks
• Businesses assessing customers or suppliers
• Individuals checking their own court record
• Creditors confirming whether a judgment exists
Whether you are searching for personal reassurance or professional due diligence, a CCJ search provides clear confirmation of whether a judgment is recorded.
If a record is found, the search may confirm key details such as:
• The existence of a County Court Judgment
• The court that issued the judgment
• The judgment date
• Whether the judgment has been satisfied
If no record is found, confirmation is provided so you can proceed with confidence.
