Hello Everyone,

I am about to file a claim with small claim court against a U.K agency. I need a lawyer who has experience in such matters. Any other tips about other government agencies to which I can resort are welcome.

The small claims court system in the UK is designed to be simple so it can be used without a lawyer. Can you not do it yourself?

The one time I used it, I just filled in a simple form and waited for the money.

In my country, Thailand, court requirements also identical to the UK. In fact the court did not listen to my testimony and evidences since I did not say through a lawyer.

So, there is no testimony needed? I'm in Egypt so I will not be able to attend a hearing in person.

I have no idea if this is true or valid, don't hold it against me:-) just take a look at it at your leisure. It has a live link that takes you to the page with the logo that looks genuine. Look up gov.uk site separately... See more

I have no idea if this is true or valid, don't hold it against me:-) just take a look at it at your leisure. It has a live link that takes you to the page with the logo that looks genuine. Look up gov.uk site separately for comparison. 25 pounds application fee is required.

Good luck. ▲ Collapse
