Hey folks. Back again. Received a letter today from Wright Hassall LLP demanding payment within 14 days otherwise they will take the issue to County Court and I will be liable for the other parties' legal fees too. What should I do next? Ignore this letter and await the court date, then come back here for the self-defence text? Thanks in advance!

Depends who they ask you to pay.

Is it really Wright Hassall or ZZPS whereby Wright Hassall
pimp out their letterhead to down and outs.

If it is the real Wright Hassall, then you as the KEEPER
deny any debt and request positive proof of the claim

Thanks Beamerguy. Will check when I get home and come back to you. Does the recent case in Cardiff (I think prosecution lawyers were Wright Hassall) change anything wrt defending these in court or is each case taken on a case by case basis?

WH never get involved in the dirty end of day to day county court cases chasing £100. The case in Cardiff was somewhat different. Ignore that.

Almost certainly you’ve had a ZZPS letter on WH headed notepaper. A debt collection letter and can be ignored.

I thought the super 'Johnersh response' to a WH 'pseudo LBCCC' letter is in the NEWBIES thread post #2?

You are not being prosecuted, this is just local court stuff

So just to check understanding a CCJ can only be issued AFTER a court case and if I have not paid the 'fine' or court costs issued? I can't get a CCJ prior to any hearing?

Redx

correct

if you lose its applied due to the judgment going against you at that hearing

its what the J means

J for Judge

J for Judgement

you then have 28 days to pay it off IN FULL and get it expunged from the court records and therefore no effect on your credit rating

no court = no judgment = no CCJ (think about it)

grimweasel

Thanks Redx -confirmed my understanding too.

i am awaiting for my debt collecter letter and was interesting to read your thread having had the similar case with PWE. I am really not looking forward to writing to landowners having two babies to care of timeconsuming but reading these threads I fear I will got to get there too. Also reading the threads assured me I have done the right thing not to pay to PWE such a ridicolous amount of charge all because their machine does not work....

You must complain to the SRA, as well as replying as I said already, Johnersh-styleee:

Same as advised there. No doubt you have the out of date CPR link too?
