UK Civil Litigation: Recovering and Protecting Costs

[@markspittle972]

Great Vlog again Alex, Happy Valentine's Day, to you both Alex and Daria. Court Wingman & South Bank Legal. Have a nice bottle of Château Lafitte on me. Only the cheap one. £50.00 a bottle, I’m a LIP.

Great video Alex. Some greate advice there. It would be worth getting someone to show you how to add chapters to your video as this would make it easier for people to skip ahead if they needed to.

Cheers for that note, will look into it

Hi. Thanks for your invaluable advice. I deal with the IP court on a regular basis, because copyright theft has become rife. I concur with your view of the court, which I find to be entirely dysfunctional. It allows itself to make all manor of errors, including grammar and spelling mistakes, yet the litigant in person is held to account throughout the court process. I have even turned up at court, only for the judge to say that there was an adjournment, which we had not been informed about. So, if the judges know about these failings, why don't they speak out in order to make the changes?

Hi Wingman , love to see a practical guide about how to prepare excellent documentation for a case, inc templates, checklists, timeline software, AI Apps-any kind of paralegal D.IY type starter kit. I''m at a point where I need to nail down documents so everything is compiled ready for a solicitor .[ my case- 'uk/ challenging a life time gift after death' or generally. Cheers

Thank you for this! Were you asking for a DIY Kit? I have often wondered whether I should produce an online product to complement the book.

Is there a specific court form for costs, or do you make your own application for costs and or statement for costs? How does the whole "claiming costs" process work? what are the steps one needs to take?

[@RedwoodLegal]

Yup, I think I need to do a video on that perhaps. But are you there yet? Where are you in your case so I can understand better?

[@RedwoodLegal]

Incidentally, yes,, there is a court form to claim summary costs at an interim hearing, N260, but it is rather confusing! I often use the one you see here in the vlog or in the book.

@@RedwoodLegal The latest I did is I answered the court track questionnaire form. (I am a defendant in a claim brought by an alleged water company or a party that makes an impression to act like a water company and they have not used their correct legal name to bring the claim, for the avoidance of doubt I asked for a company registration number to correctly identify the claimant, but they do not answer that questions, which I believe is unreasonable behavior and does not adhere to CPR and pre- action disclosure for alleged debt claims).

TYSM!!

Mr Courtwingman, I have called your company - the courtwingman twice and e-mailed twice and no one has repsonded to me. I have a deadline for the claim and was hoping to be able to get your service.

You may be using an old number. Best to email [e-mail] and book a legal surgery - we check this daily and is our main email. This avoids reception.
