Issuing proceedings covers formally starting a court claim in England and Wales, by filing the claim form and the particulars of claim in the appropriate court. A solicitor drafts and serves the required documents, checks jurisdiction, and ensures the claim complies with the Civil Procedure Rules before the case progresses to case management and defence. The process sets out the basis for liability, the remedy sought, and the timetable for exchange of evidence and subsequent steps.
The solicitor handles form filing and service, checks CPR compliance, and coordinates the initial case timetable, including allocating to a track, organising disclosure, and preparing for early case management discussions. They identify possible counterclaims, track court fees, and liaise with the client, opposing party, and court to establish a procedural path that avoids delays or default judgments.
