    A statement is not proof

    Pictures ..... signage ---- a full breakdown of the £320 ???

    30 days to respond ???

    They MUST prove their claim to you, that is what the
    new protocol is all about.

    QDR are a spin off of Wright Hassall solicitors
    Getting involved with the parking scam is up their alley

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
