Lay Representative required for telephone hearing

Hello. I'm not sure if I should have started a new thread on this (sorry if I shouldn't!) but I've got a telephone hearing at some point (not got a date yet, says it's to be fixed) for a parking claim and was hoping that a lay representative could help me out with their attendance? Ideally I would like somebody who has some sort of legal training - can see a few on here do - and was just wondering if anyone could recommend anyone to me to help out? Thanks guys!

    Be very careful if you get loads of offers to be a Lay Rep for you.  Check with the regulars before accepting an offer - and Lay repping by posters on here is free.
    Hmm not sure i agree with that.  some people will do it for free, but why should they (unless they want to) be expected to do it for free.  I see no issue with being paid to do it (or expenses etc)  and asking to be paid to do. People are welcome to say NO.   Would you expect a gardener to come round and cut your grass for free.......

    To the OP, we are happy with BrownTrout, I have met him, he will have the claimant in tears.
    He also likes a couple of pints  :)

    my price was tongue in cheek of course :smile:
  • Thanks for all your assistance so far. I know there's a few characters on here who aren't acting in good faith, so just wanted to try and find someone who is decent and hopefully qualified to some degree in Law! Any recommendations?

    If you have an existing thread for this claim then I suggest you ask a Board Guide to merge the threads ... anyone wishing to help will need the background.

    This is not going to happen. You can't just ask for a lay rep (you don't need one) and you haven't even said which parking firm it is.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
