Euro carparks / QDR solicitors letter before court action please help

Debszzzz2

I am not content for the case to be heard 'on the papers' because that seems to disproportionately give an advantage to a legally represented party. I feel strongly that I need a voice at an attended hearing. 

I wish to question the Claimant about their evidence at a hearing in person and to expose omissions and any misleading or incorrect evidence or assertions. Given the Claimant is a firm who complete cut & paste parking case paperwork for a living, having this case heard solely on papers would appear to put the Claimant at an unfair advantage, especially as they would no doubt prefer the Defendant not to have the opportunity to expose the issues in the Claimants template submissions or speak as the only true witness to events in question

This is already covered in the NEWBIES thread.  Please always re-read that first.

one question asked is;

 if you do not want the judge to make a determination based on the papers but rather prefer to be in court, please give a reason for this.

I would prefer to go to court and read out my witness statement and for the court to see the emotion involved in this so that I can express the harassment I have felt personally etc. I would be grateful for your thoughts on a reasonable rationale to answer this question.

As well as the answer kindly given to you by @debszzz2 this is clearly explained for you in the NEWBIE sticky here: -

Yes, there are a couple of new Qs in the tedious N180 form; please DON'T post asking about how to answer them:

The NEWBIE sticky or template defence thread are your go-to places for help.
