This work covers the pre-action stage in debt disputes under the Civil Procedure Rules in England. A solicitor drafts and sends the required pre-action steps, gathers and reviews supporting documents, and communicates with the creditor or debtor about the debt, dates, and proposed timetable. They may advise on whether mediation is appropriate, assess defenses and counterclaims, and prepare any needed information requests or settlement proposals. The aim is to map the issues clearly before any court claim is started and to avoid litigation where possible.
The pre-action protocol requires sharing key information, confirming the amount owed, interest, and any disputes about liability. The solicitor will identify applicable limitation risks, explore settlement or payment arrangements, and outline next steps if a claim proceeds, including how evidence will be collected and any timelines that must be respected.
