    Proof they're not actually interested in following the Pre-action Protocols, they just want you to pay them money.
    A genuine solicitor should not behave like this.

    No claim letter received but they have sent an email. Just fishing?

    Dear XXXXX,

    We write further to our previous correspondence and note we have not received payment of the Amount Due/ Debt. This email is to remind you to contact us at your earliest convenience to resolve this matter.

    Our client wishes to resolve this matter amicably and without the need for costly Court proceedings. However, owing to your lack of payment, considers it has no other choice than to issue Court proceedings in the event the Amount Due/ Debt remains outstanding.

    We invite you to make payment in accordance with our previous correspondence. Our team is ready to try to work with you to resolve this matter without the need for Court proceedings and it is important you contact us upon receipt of this email.

    If you have already made payment or contacted us in relation to this matter, then please ignore this email and accept our apologies.

    Please do not reply to this message. This email was sent from an unmonitored mailbox.

    Yours sincerely

    Gladstones Solicitors Limited"

    Debt collection letter. Ignore it. Come back if you receive a Letter Of/Before Claim from Gladstones, or an actual claim form from the CNBC Northampton.

    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.
