Flying Solo

Are you representing yourself in a county court of England and Wales... or plan to?

Civil proceedings are more often than not like an aerial dogfight, for which you had no training. Your opponent may fire ammunition you didn't know existed and get the help you cannot afford. Is it like riding a bike? No. If it was easy, lawyers wouldn't exist. To put the odds of winning in your favour you need guidance from someone who can navigate the rarefied atmosphere and teach you controls.

This 'Paperback Wing' is both a friendly guide and a practical toolkit to help you bring or defend a claim. Its useful information and real-case examples will help you fight the tactical battle as well as get the procedure right.

It includes samples and extracts of all the materials you will need:
- letters before action,
- particulars of claim, defence, counterclaim, reply,
- directions questionnaire,
- N244 applications,
- witness statements,
- settlement agreements,
- costs schedules,
- without prejudice and Part 36 offers,
- enforcement,
- trial preparation, and
- costs schedules and costs tactics.

With the right knowledge and prior preparation, you may well be on track to win the dogfight with little risk. Because why waste your time, effort and money?
