    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.

    A £291 Highview/DCB Legal claim discontinuation after putting yet another Defendant through the wringer. 

    A lot of these threads and comments are really helpful (am currently being threatened by Smart Parking), am wondering if they discontinue and drop cases when the defendant has quite a robust defence?  If we don't have much of a defence but still say we'll go to court, do you guys think they may still drop the case?

    I answered this query in your own thread, extremely likely,  next year
