If a solicitor is preparing their papers for them, it's their bread and butter, but Gladstones have prepared some howlers which cost their PPC client dear, not only in terms of losing their court case and its immediate costs, but the defendant's cost plus the likely Gladstones charges for 'professional services rendered'!

The PPC can invoke 'RK liability' if and only if they have complied with the statutory requirements under PoFA Schedule 4. Even now, four years on, it is surprising how many PPCs fail to do so.

Whilst it is now too late for the OP's mother to "name the driver" and transfer any liability which already exists, the OP should nonetheless carefully review the original letters sent by the PPC, including dates sent, and carefully cross-reference them against the statutory requirements under PoFA to see whether the latter have been complied with.

If not, then "no RK liability" plus "not the driver" would defeat the claim, assuming both are accepted by the judge.
