A WRIT OF POSSESSION EMPOWERS US TO...

... enter a person’s home or land and remove illegal occupiers using reasonable force if necessary. A Writ of Possession also grants us the authority to request Police support - enabling us to provide you with a comprehensive, highly effective enforcement service.

COMMON LAW

The principle at common law is that a person entitled to the immediate possession of land may enter and, in a civil action, may justify the use of so much force as is necessary to effect entry and to expel an intruder, provided the force used is reasonable.
