    Do I need a statement of truth at the end of my defence?

    I am really confused about the counterclaim, I didn't think I'd have to state a specific amount, I thought the court would work out the amount? How do you put an amount on 'general damages for anxiety and distress' or 'disruption to preventative care pathway'?

    Using MCOL to put in a defence, of course you don't need a statement of truth. The system covers that … otherwise no LiP defendant would know to add it and there'd be no justice if defences ended up failing or struck out, due to omitting a legalese sign-off that people don't know about.
