    You've printed out a copy of this to take into the hearing (along with printed copies of ALL submissions from both sides) in case they try to deny you the right to speak?

    https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1999/1225/made/data.pdf

    Tell the usher when you sign in.

    DO NOT accept merely being a McKenzie Friend (a silent helper who cannot speak).
    I just want to underline this part. When I went to Lay Rep, the usher was convinced that I could only be a McKenzie Friend. Fortunately, a word with the Judge sorted it, so don't be afraid to mention it to him/her.
    The pen is mightier than the sword ..... and I have many pens.

    Thanks for the advice: So can I do all the talking on the day if I say I am the lay rep?

    Do I need to prepare myself for the Claimant’s Supplementary Skeleton Argument that was added? And does my case still have a good chance of winning?
    You've been given good ammunition by two posters above.
