Arkanara v A&L

[arkanara]

Hi all, sorry I havn't been on for a while, xmas is a busy time at work for me.

 

Ok I have an update, we have received a letter offering us £1000, they say this works out at just over £13 per charge which supports the oft decision, as this is what we seem to be relying on in our court bundle. I know what I want my next step to be, especially that they are being so stubborn and rude in their letters. I want to reject it and carry on with the claim, even if it does mean going to court. Im just a little uneasy of there wording, offering the difference etc.

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

 

Iv had very little to report recently, however after they offered my partner £1000 we kindly refused with a thanks but no thanks. In the offer letter they agreed to pay £1000 and drop the counterclaim. In the reply I thanked them and once again reminded them of the CPR which says they cannot claim legal fees in a small claim. Their solicitor has since replied to

 

"correct what appears to be your misapprehension in relation to the Society's counterclaim. This is not a claim for legal fees in a small claim, but a contractual claim for legal and administrative costs"

 

That was the whole reson for their reply. Although I am aware this is another attempt to get us to back out can anyone advise me as to what the difference in the two are and with the court date only 10 days away, if we loose what expenses we are likely to incur.

 

Many thanks in advance as always.
