Re: How to counterclaim
Have you put in your defence already? If you haven't you can put in a defence and counterclaim together otherwise you will need to make the application to court and pay the usual fees.
Once we know the answer to the above then we can point you in the right direction.If you have a question about the voluntary termination process, please read this guide first, as it should have all the answers you need. Please do not hijack another person's thread as I will not respond to you

Re: How to counterclaim
Thanks Rob,
I filed the defence but have now been advised to counter claim, as the legal fees were astronomical and getting nowhere fast, I will have to do it on my own. I'm not sure how to tell the court that an adjudicator has made a decision which to me was `OK and acceptable but the other party are not happy. I as told I had good grounds to put in a counter claim bt don't know where to start.
Many thanks for the replyComment

Re: How to counterclaim
The process would be the same as if you were making a separate claim against the Claimant. However you will need to put in your form that you are seeking permission to file a counterclaim in accordance with CPR 20. It will be the N1 form and you could do this without notice and without a hearing to reduce fees. Evidence will need to be supported e.g. a witness statement, and a counterclaim included as well.If you have a question about the voluntary termination process, please read this guide first, as it should have all the answers you need.
