    I'm going to [partly] stand up for Napier on this one.

    The issue is being caused by the "race to the bottom" within the legal profession and the techniques here are the same as those being used by legal professionals in PI/accident cases. The difference here is that the amounts involved are a quantum smaller than PI/accident cases so even less work is done on them. They are push-button claims.

    It is on record that BW Legal are handling 1mn claims with only 6 supervising solicitors so there would likely have been no human reading the letters or your responses at all. They wait until there is a hearing coming up. So the issue is wholly of BW's making - but again the court process (CPR rules) puts the onus on the Claimant to supervise the process - letting solicitors like BW, SCS and Gladstones off the hook.

    So if Napier is to be criticised, it is in blindly allowing BW access to their paperwork without checking. But the issue is BW and their lack of scrutiny here.

    Perhaps the SRA might look at it as the IPC wont. Hurley was prosecuted for PCOJ so he won't be too worried about something less than that.

    To some extent I agree with you but taking away the fact it was a child. The car was parked in a disabled bay with a blue badge clearly indicating mobility issues. Napiers parking warden chose to ignore all these facts and still issue a parking 'fine' for going over the time on the ticket. When they were contacted they were really rude and did say they were within their rights to continue to harass a child until the driver was disclosed. The landowner also chose to sit on the fence.
    This was way before they appointed BWLegal to represent them.

    Things have been busy so I have not done anything in regards to what has happened but yesterday I received an email from the courts to say that they had noted my email but the claimant had withdrawn the claim already.

    Then today I have received the biggest joke of a letter from Napier with a letter enclosed from BWLegal.

    Napier state 'if we had followed their policy this could have been addressed sooner'. The same company that told me unless I disclosed who was driving they were entitled to carry on harassing my child.

    BW Legal have sent a standard letter stating 'the decision to discontinue proceedings was not taken lightly by our client as they still believe that the grounds for issuing the Fixed Charge Notice are fully justified, however our client has no appetite on protracting any further litigation activity against an individual who is a minor'

    Appetite!!! More like its actually illegal!

    Send a copy of all that to your own MP, and to Sir Greg Knight, the MP who has put in the latest Parking Bill.

    You are looking at the true mark of a scammer and a
    very sad individual who himself has fallen in the sewers.
    The legal firm has joined him

    As C-M says above, your own MP, and to Sir Greg Knight
    Also supporting this bill is Jacob Rees-Mogg MP
    jacob.reesmogg.mp@parliament.uk

    You must copy him with this disgusting story.

    Contact the Daily Mail and tell your story

    This disgusting duo must be exposed

    I have added this to the BWLegal thread

    Another surprise parking ticket has dropped through the post addressed to my child.

    This time it is parking eye, apparently my registration plate wasn't put in correctly to a machine at premier inn/brewster fayre. I have spoke to the land owners they have said i need to call parking eye.

    Not sure whether to ignore or point out that it is a minor.

    Any advise would be appreciated.
