Hi

I have just recieved an email from the Courts for the mediation appt on 24th Sep, they are going to ring me.

 Im not sure what to do as it says I will have to explain my defence, will I need to prepare a brief summary of my defence or anything.

Kind regards

Kev
Search the forum, but essentially you offer £0 to settle and do not discuss your defence at all.
The process mandates this step but it will go away quickly.

A quick search of the forum for “mediation”:will reveal why is involved and why you simply offer £0.

Hi

Ive just finished the mediation appt over the phone and I explained I dont wish to discuss my defence as the claimant has a copy in writing.

They offered a settlement fee of £200.00 and I offered £0.

I then received a call back from the mediator saying that the claimant would settle for £95.00 would I like to counter offer, again I said £0 and I was informed that it will now go to court.

I really hope I did the right thing !!

Many thanks for your advice on this matter.

You did the right thing. This mediation is a complete waste of time.

It will never reach a hearing. They will discontinue before they have to pay the £27 trial fee.
