I'd advise seeing a solicitor on Monday.., but really you should have done this earlier. Given the sums talked about, surely it would be worth paying for an hour of a solicitor's time?
If you include a witness statement, you are safest making sure they are willing to appear in court. It depends on the Judge.., but sometimes they like to be able to question a witness. As might the other party. If the witness isn't present, the statement could be thrown out.
I have a witness statement drafted with the help of my local CAB : I think I will just incorporate each paragraph of the witness statement in the associated paragraph of particular/counterclaim in my new defence and counterclaim.
As a result, my typed defence and counterclaim will certainly be about 20 pages.0
