High Court
Step 1 - Where to Make Your Debt Claim
Claims above €75,000 can only be made in the High Court. You can make a debt claim in the High Court for less than this amount, but you should note that the costs involved are much higher than in the District or Circuit Court.
To make a claim to the High Court:
- the contract must be made in Ireland, or;
- the respondent must live or work in Ireland.
For any exceptions to this, please see Order 11 of the Superior Court Rules.
All High Court claims are made in the Central Office of the High Court. The Central Office of the High Court is on the ground floor (east wing) of the Four Courts building on Inns Quay, Dublin 7.
