I suspect only 2/5ths of the upper hand! There again, that's what you gained on them! ✋ 😛
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.

Last time this was on TV, I was inundated with enquiries from people who had just received a PCN, or letters from DRP and similar.
My standard reply to those people was as follows:I only become involved in private parking cases when they reach the court claim stage. The general free advice on MSE for dealing with appeals etc. is very good, and if I got involved in every specific case I’d be answering queries 24/7. If you receive a Claim Form from the County Court Business Centre, please scan the first page and fire it over to me, if you wish me to draft your Defence. Please note that I do not accept photos of documents taken on a mobile phone, it must be properly scanned and forwarded as a PDF file.
NEWBIES please note.
I hear that this parking documentary is repeated on Channel 5 next Friday 3rd at 6pm.
It's on at 7pm, not 6, that is the slot for Neighbours, and the present Mrs Bargepole will be very upset at the suggestion that her favourite soap will be moved.
I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.6 -
If I heard right, the present Mrs Bargepole will soon be devastated, as it is being (has been?) cancelled.bargepole said:It's on at 7pm, not 6, that is the slot for Neighbours, and the present Mrs Bargepole will be very upset at the suggestion that her favourite soap will be moved.

The title tells you everything you need to know.
A bit like Finding Nemo, or Slumdog Millionaire.
