Hi, I have put my defence in but did not put a counterclaim in as I did not have the information at the time. Now I have the information I would like to add a counterclaim to my defence , how do i do that ?

Thats amazing thank you , is there anywhere that I could get an example layout for the format of the application as I am representing myself and dont want to get the format wrong , do I also send a copy to the claimant at the same time I send a copy to the courts

Apply using form N244: https://www.gov.uk/government/public...ication-notice

You only need to send a copy to the court. When the court has issued the application it will send a copy to the other party.

You should download and read the Judiciary's handbook for LiPs - link in my signature (below).

The format is very set as on the form. You just answer the questions on the box. For the one on evidence in support you should write a POC in the box below (you will see on the form it says box below - make sure to tick that option) as if you were making the claim as a standalone
