Easyjet wrongly denied boarding plane to bulgaria and dont admit

mattyprice4004

Bulgaria may not require it, but if easyJet say you need one then you need one. 

The airline can make up their own rules if they want.

That sounds like throwing good money after bad.  At best, if they back down they won't pay your solicitors fees, which could easily dwarf your refund.

I'd be surprised if any solicitor would take a £480 case on conditional funding and if you do win you will probably have to pay them more than £480 in fees as under £10,000 is small track where legal fees are excluded as they are intended to be relatively simple cases which you can deal with without solicitors.

Then you'd be better off not winning.  Their fees if you win will almost certainly be well in excess of the cost of the flights.

You do have other options, you can deal with this yourself. It's not particularly difficult, although I'm not convinced of your chances.

If you're clear that you're in the right then you take to small claims yourself - and you claim for the correct amount rather than some inflated amount you've been told to claim for

I would assume that they have come up with for the claim is based on €400 denied boarding compensation in addition to reimbursement of the £480 and fee would be 25% + vat...is that correct...make sure you check the paperwork very carefully, many people have lost more of their claims than they expected to (and if you have entered into a contract now you will be liable to pay the fees even if EasyJet decide to pay you directly)

I think the OP is doing a very good job getting the deal he has got from his solicitors.

I have been to court several times and I would now always want a solicitor. Otherwise the issue often becomes who is better arguing their case in front of the Judge. Lay people can be brilliant but they can also be terribble - not presenting key facts, muddling up dates etc etc

Also don't always assume that the small claims track is just a cosy chat with the judge and other other side. It is often in very intimidating settings (large courtrooms etc). The Judges also vary enormously in terms of how well they tolerate those are are not up to speed on legal matters. Sometimes they are very friendly and give you time to make your case etc helping/prodding where required. Other times they treat you not much better than a criminal in the dock.

A bit of a side-track (sorry) but I would never go to hearing of any sort without a solicitor.
