Can i sue someone i loaned money to and now say they will not pay it back?


I loaned money to a friend, (£20k), we agreed that the money will have to be returned within 6months up to 1 year. They now say they will not pay it back.
I have copies of the cheque they cashed. Can I sue? And if I can and they declare themselves bankrupt can I still get my money back? And if they are working full time can they be declared bankrupt especially if they have no other debts?

My Husband Has an IVA. Can they tough my personal savings?

Credit cards


Hi , My husband & I have recently married & he has kindly offered to pay my credit card debts off and pay him back without the added interest rate. My question is , is it worth asking them to lower the debt amount as it would be a lump sum and if so is there a standard letter or terminology that is appropriate in these situations . I look forward to your reply .

Kind regards
