If he was following his contract he should only have £900 left to pay on the £3000 job. Instead he chose the remain with our terms and go for keeping back £1500.....Ummmm, when it suits him ey, This could be his downfall i think.
I`m genuinely sorry to read that....but , bearing in mind the new law on Bankruptcy, and the lessening of the stigma attached.I would seriously consider filing for bankruptcy..Let the dust settle and then your husband could get a job as a hotel maintenance guy for example, while you give yourselves time to re think and move onTheWife said:Thx Softus....the first reassuring news weve had.
Ultimately, I suspect that this guys antics could mean our business winds up.....loss of earnings for a month is going to devastate us and persuing will also be as costly if we lose. But hey, when you look it that way.....were already in the s***t financially, so why not go out with a humdinger of a battle.
Do you realise that a court is duty bound to assume that the sender of a letter is telling the truth, unless there is evidence or an indication to the contrary? What grounds do you have for believing what you're writing here, let alone publishing it?david and not julie said:IT IS ESSENTIAL your solicitor does this and not you, the court will recognise and respect his view over yours. The landlord could throw your letter in the bin and deny all knowledge, whereas a court would believe your solicitor.

You must do what you're comfortable with, but don't be misled - whilst your contractor might take more notice of a letter from your solicitor, it means nothing extra to the court.TheWife said:Softus said:Do you realise that a court is duty bound to assume that the sender of a letter is telling the truth, unless there is evidence or an indication to the contrary?

Hi....I think david & julie are just making sure I dot my eyes and cross my t's. I believe that a legal letter would be more difficult to ignore.

My grounds are that you overstepped the simple act of stating facts and recommending legal advice. I never said that you were wrong to advise seeking legal representation. I sincerely hope that The Wife does that, because she'll then discover that you were stating opinion, not facts.david (but no julie) said:What grounds do you have for your comment and why am I wrong to advise the seeking of legal representation?
