    Yes, but they're ignoring the OP. They are less likely to ignore a solicitor's letter.
    Uhm no?


    I would treat any LBA the same. An LBA is just part of the pre-action protocol.


    I would in fact argue that receiving one from a solicitor would simply bring a smile to a rogue debtor. Knowing that cost is totally unrecoverable.
  • I have sent LBA they just replied with no payment will be made until all worked signed off by the client and deductions made for defects. So I!!!8217;m guessing my only option is small claims court

    Well that is what you do if no payment is forthcoming.
