Re: Letter of Claim from Moorside Legal
By: IAN28221 Date: September 25, 2025, 6:43 pm

Good evening,
I have now received a Notice of Transfer of Proceedings to
transfer the case to a local court for allocation and case
management directions with a notice of allocation to be sent out
in due course. Clearly mediation failed to resolve the matter.
In your expert opinion should I suggest a resolution to Moorside
to conclude matters by agreement? Basically, each party goes on
their own respective paths and that is the end of the matter? If
so, do you have a template to use to make such a proposal /
offer?
Alternatively, your thoughts.

No.
You offered £0 to settle in the mediation session and it was not
accepted.

You are showing a naivety that this firm of utterly incompetent,
supposed legal professionals at Moorside hope for. You have had,
or should have had, your mandatory mediation phone call.
That phone call was supposed to be your opportunity to negotiate
a settlement. Our advice is to only offer £0. The mediation is
not part of the judicial process and no judge is involved. It is
without prejudice and has no bearing on the case going forward.
When was you mediation call and what did you say on it?
This is the advice we give to defendants for their mediation
call:
[quote]“Before I set out my position, please confirm from the
claimant’s side:
[indent]• the full name of the person attending for them;
• their role/position at their legal representative’s firm; and
• whether they hold written authority to negotiate and settle
today.[/indent]
Please relay that back to me before we continue.”
After the mediator calls back...
If identified and authority confirmed:
[indent]“Thank you. I’m content to proceed on that basis. My
settlement offer is £0, or I invite the claimant to discontinue
with no order as to costs.”[/indent]
If no/unclear authority:
[indent]“Please record that the claimant’s attendee has not
confirmed settlement authority. My position remains that
liability is denied and my offer is £0, subject to prompt
approval by an authorised solicitor if they choose to
discontinue.”[/indent]
All you need to know is the name and the position of the person
acting for the claimant and report that back to us. It will be
over within minutes. Complete waste of time otherwise.[/quote]
If the claim has now been transferred to your local county
court, you now have to wait for the judges directions which you
should show us when you receive them. They will contain some
dates and deadlines which are important.
The odds of this actually reaching hearing are very slim to
none. This is because they are hoping that you are low-hanging
fruit on the gullible tree who is going to be easily intimidated
into paying up out of ignorance and fear. They will wait until
the very last minute to discontinue, if the claim is not struck
out beforehand.
So, did you have a mediation call? If yes, what did you say? If
not, then just wait for the directions and then show us when you
receive them.

Yes, I had a mediation call from a guy called Stuart. He was
very pleasant and more or less said what you state and concluded
the call on basis that there was no agreement and so would
report back to court and just to wait and hear from them. He
simply said that Moorside representative was maintaining their
claim and because of my stance there was no prospect of a
settlement and he would inform Morrside as well.

And did you get the information you were advised to ask?
[quote]• the full name of the person attending for them;
• their role/position at their legal representative’s firm; and
• whether they hold written authority to negotiate and settle
today.[/quote]
We need this information because we believe that the person who
was acting for Moorside is not authorised to conduct litigation
(acting for Moorside, even if under supervision) and they are in
breach of the Legal Services Act 2007, which is a criminal
offence.
If you need to understand more about why we are now asking these
questions, you can read this thread:
Why the recent High Court appellate case of Mazur is very
relevant to all cases we deal with here

I have today received an Order for the Court. I am unable to
send you an attachment as I cannot see a link for an attachment
as I need to know if there any steps I need to take. Your advice
guidance would be appreciated.
Many thanks as always

The judge has struck out the claimants PoC. However, he has
thrown them a lifeline.
They must submit new PoC that answer the questions in the order,
which are the ones mentioned in the defence that are missing.
They must do so by 4pm 20 October. If they don’t, the claim is
struck out,
If they do respond, you then have until 4pm 3 November to submit
an amended defence which is based on the amended PoC.
Let’s wait and see whether the claimant complies. If they do,
show us the new PoC and we can create a suitable defence in
response.
Oh, and there’s no need to redact Judge Akers name or the county
court where he sits.

I received the following today just before the deadline set by
the court.
Can you review and let me know what can be done now. As will be
seen the person dealing with the matter is a litigation
paralegal to answer your earlier question.
I will upload the documents through the process previously
suggested.
