Great advice simply put, thanks

How complete should the documentation be? There is relevant and irrelevant communication. Some just refers to entirely unrelated topics like the actual business that was being conducted. There could be huge attachments with hundreds of pages, or videos, skype messages, slack messages, phone calls, etc. One can never document everything and/or share it.

You are just full of shit ….gather your thoughts before blabbing…choose better venue…..

What happens if the witness statement is signed but not dated

Dear Sir, I have property dispute where it was agreed that my late parents property was transferred in a siblings name to hold in trust until such time our parents were deceased. Thereafter to sell and distribute shares etc. The sibling has failed to cooperate as she has deceived parties with intentions they had and reliance. How can I obtain a court declaration of beneficial interest in UK and which court would this be filed and under what jurisdiction? What is the legal standing of the registered owner..e.g a representative/administrator / etc.

🎉

You talk to long to get to the point! To much waffle!

Very useful information. Thank you

11:08 did you say "colored" and "it's a black man" that right there is a clumsy stupid remark. Nobody says that

Hi. Thanks for your invaluable advice. I deal with the IP court on a regular basis, because copyright theft has become rife. I concur with your view of the court, which I find to be entirely dysfunctional. It allows itself to make all manor of errors, including grammar and spelling mistakes, yet the litigant in person is held to account throughout the court process. I have even turned up at court, only for the judge to say that there was an adjournment, which we had not been informed about. So, if the judges know about these failings, why don't they speak out in order to make the changes?

I am going through exactly the same thing right now, i could hire you without thinking twice about it.

Hello thanks for these videos! Really unhappy with the customer service provided Hastings my car insurer, due to their incredibly poor service they had me spend hours writing complaint emails and make telephone calls. Ive been misdvised numerous times, I've complained 4 times and they only replied to one complaint. I raised this with FOS and bizarrely they admitted both that Hastings should have communicated better but simultaneously that they believed Hastings didn't have to do anything further to rectify their shoddy service (despite never at any point addressing three of my complaints). Ive already plundered so much time and energy into trying to get them to address their service but FOS have given them the green light apparently. I really dont want to let them off the hook, so im wondering, please can you advise if there's any chance of having a claim uphold for distress, inconvenience and time loss in small claims court? im only looking to claim £300 to cover the time wasted, let alone the stress and anxiety they have caused. Many thanks in advance

Is there a different form for higher value claims potentially over £50,000

Learned more From this chap in 3 videos than I have in 3 years with everyone else I see dropping information bombs All over the place

Unfair relationship thank you !!!!!

🙂🙂🙂 well done Alex 🙌👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I really enjoy watching your videos- always learn something interesting. Currently have a person who appears to be harassing me (a lady who appears to believe that, for some reason, I should not be allowed to use a fitness facility / a place accessible to the general public). The facility is inside one of the British Universities which makes this situation extra interesting.

So the insurers have failed to comment on liability, they've had 3 months EXTRA time to investigate and still no outcome. Ive decided to push this to court. On the claim form do you put the defendants name/address or the insureres or both?

Hi Alex, its fabtasctic people like you who make me want to study law. Incidentally, i have in my posession your 2020 edition, Flying Solo. Introduction - Life in the skies... perfectly brilliant!

Hi, great channel. I have a pending case which I opened for damages 9k, the defendant opened the counterclaim which is not related to my claim and is claiming the same damages from his side. On the top of that he opened the additional claim which is exactly the same as the counterclaim....the only difference is that he added my partner to this new claim as the second named third party (he called us 20 part defendants on additional claim application). I had a hearing yesterday for jurisdiction and I raised up the duplicate claims...judge wasn't interested that topic...is it normal ?? Res judicata doesn't apply here?

Is this filed with the bundle the court asks for before setting the date of a hearing with the my(claimant) witness statement for the Particulars of claim and itself?

Thanks for the blog and advice. A scheduled 3 interliner, by the way, is an important lining fabric that acts as a fire barrier!

overall like the way you deliver how it works. Just had a point to make that the statement you made that 9 times out of 10 it wouldn’t work is very misleading and discouraging . To my knowledge only 3 times out of 10 it wouldn’t work. Might be wrong

Terribly sorry if ive missed this and i will listen again but if we feel theres a good case a claim will be on the small track, would we still get time given the redtraints to give our witness statement or is it done at the same time as the defence to cut down on time? Will a court give us directions or leave it to us to decide to give an account other than our defence ?

great video

Thanks for this Alex. I couldn't find any, but do you have any vids where you talk about how you create a bundle prior to a hearing?

Jesus. I hadn't gotten to this stage yet but, well explained that all the evidence needs connected to a witness statement. 😮 I guess I didn't read that bit yet in the Sheriff Court Practice book. 😂 I know there are differences but, good info mate.

Most of the party litigant "guides" are no good. You really need the books. The civil procedure one in England and in Scotland MacPhail's Sheriff Court Practice. I had read voluminous amounts of info on procedure in Scotland & felt like I knew nothing yet. Access to the books is very important. Game changer. None of the "guides" properly explain craves, condescendence etc. Best guide I've seen bar the books is the Scottish Land Court DIY guide, which isn't exactly the same as civil "simple" procedure but, it gives a good idea of what you need to do.

Hello. Thank you for this very informative video. My father is an extremely wealthy man and i'm his first born. Neither myself or my Mother have ever received a penny of help from him. He went on to have two more children, raised one of his grandchildren and adopted her sibling from another man. All private schooling for them. Private eveything. Horses. Houses galore. Tennis courts, pools. Tens and tens of property. I know being hurt by this doesn't mean a thing in court. Would it not be taken into consideration at all? That fact that he brought me into this world and knowingly left me to grow up in poverty. Leaving me with abandonedment issues. Hurt and psin. Whilst he enjoyed his pools and tennis courts. The best health care. Would the effect of this not be taken into account. His responsibility laughed at, my life laughed at. It should be illegal to bring a child into the world and leave them to live a hard life whilst you have the means to make a change. The living, breathing, feeling human who is only here because of them. He hasnt died yet, i might go before him. I might be left a fortune, you never know. Some people think in extraordinary ways.

Can you point me in the right direction how to file a defamation case against a supported housing organisation that after reading my case notes from my support worker making untrue statements about me being a drug addict and mentally ill

Does your book cover defamation cases? Thanks

I have ADHD and ASD,I have no choice but to act as a litigant in person. Will a judge allow for my conditions in dealing with me?

You should take insurance against losing, you’ll need the opinion of a solicitor/barrister on the case to satisfy the insurers.

Hi, I went shopping at a Store, I left the shop after paying for the goods, I got in my van and left, within 5 minutes I had a police car with sirens and blue flashing lights coming down the duel carriage way behind me(I actually slowed down to let them past) little did I know they were coming for me, they pulled along side and pointed at me to pull over,I pulled over, I immediately asked what I had done, they said I had stolen Lego from the store, and I was seen running across the car park with the Lego, I got out the van, the police said something about "Pace" and they searched the van and I was detained for about 15 minutes (I was claiming my innocence all the time) after about 15 minutes and NO Lego found, they contacted the people using the CCTV, It was established I did not match the description of the Lego theif and the actual Lego theif was seen getting into a car, and NOT a van... I was shocked, furious,scared ,and humiliated all at the same time, I would like to bring legal action against the Store involved, my question is , do I use the Small Claims Court to do this? Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers Alex

can you do a video about how to respond to a judge, or the adjudicating officer in the claims court. Paperwork is great, timings, dates timelines, but all the paperwork n the world doesn't prepare you for a judge, knowing you are self litigant, constantly interrupting, throwing curve ball questions, and worst of all quoting Latin terms to you.

i cant understand why there are not hundreds of videos like this available on CZcams for the UK. This is perfect. its like talking to a friend in a cafe, its like a 30 min consultation with a solicitor. My first lunch with a Public prosecutor in a criminal matter was just like this (lost btw). Ive subscribed...and also will steal this Presentation formulae for my videos. Its perfect from start to finish. Thank you

In my two short stints in Sheriff's court in Scotland 20 years ago.. I found it VERY interesting! I did a Summary Cause and a Small Claims and both times, the Sheriff chastised the solicitors brutally whereas he treated the party litigant as he should - sympathetic to them being largely ignorant of procedure. 😂 I couldn't believe how brutal they were to the solicitors especially the juniors.

Hi Wingman , love to see a practical guide about how to prepare excellent documentation for a case, inc templates, checklists, timeline software, AI Apps-any kind of paralegal D.IY type starter kit. I''m at a point where I need to nail down documents so everything is compiled ready for a solicitor .[ my case- 'uk/ challenging a life time gift after death' or generally. Cheers

Great video. ... Your Honor. Please let me preset you with some details; In order to win this case on my own, I had to dedicate 3 years of my time; I had to enrol for a law course at Cambridge University and pay full University Fees. Please award them back to me + £19 per each hour :>

Hi, I have joint custody 50/50 of my little boy. One would assume that neither parent would need to pay child maintenance but because my ex partner receives the child benefit and only one person can claim it she is classed as the parent with care so the child maintenance service say I still need to pay. How does that work fairly?

TYSM!!

Mr Courtwingman, I have called your company - the courtwingman twice and e-mailed twice and no one has repsonded to me. I have a deadline for the claim and was hoping to be able to get your service.

Interested if the credit agreement applies to an overdrawn bank account or just the likes of a loan or credit card?

Thank you SO much this is VERY useful to hear as its said in an easy-to-understand way. The claim I have against me is for about 20 points - a lot of which are similar. I have a few questions for you: 1. I want to tell the story and I believe a witness statement is the way to do this. Can I refer to the W.S. in the defence and counterclaim? Should I submit the W.S. with the D&C? 2. Do I need to give the claimants solicitor everything? (He didn't give me anything apart from an email to say that he's applying to the court now) 3. Do I need to respond to every point, i.e. points 5, 8, and 12 are denied because... (as this makes it long, and like you said, it will look tedious to the judge). 4. Do I need to file an N9B form with the counterclaim (as it is for money, too) or... essentially I want to say that the deposit should be sent to the TDS (as I didn't register it properly) and not to me so maybe I don't need to counterclaim for money/do the N9B form? 5. Can I request to cap costs or omit the claim completely, or does the court decide this at their discretion?

Is there a specific court form for costs, or do you make your own application for costs and or statement for costs? How does the whole "claiming costs" process work? what are the steps one needs to take?

Great video Alex. Some greate advice there. It would be worth getting someone to show you how to add chapters to your video as this would make it easier for people to skip ahead if they needed to.
