Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I successfully got my money back off scabby Abbey last year and i am now helping my mum and dad get some of their hard earned cash back. Mum and Dad have been self employed all their life now retired cash is as abundant and looking at their spending over the years and account management i figure they are owed a pretty penny.
Mum and Dad cant do this on their own as its just too confusing for them so i wanting to know if they can legally appointment me to act on their behalf???? I know getting the ball rolling can be done without this but when it comes to actually chasing things up on the phone does it have to be one of them? and if a court date was to be sat in the future can i attend and speak for them ?
They can write to the bank giving you full authority to deal, but I understand that banks often don't pay any attention to this...
Instead, just draft all the correspondance yourself and get them to sign it (I think pp'ing is fine - solicitors do it all the time.)
As for chasing up on the phone - I wouldn't bother, keep it all in writing then nobody can deny something they have said to you verbally...
In the unlikely event of making it to court, your parents can request that you deal as a 'litigation friend', but I beleive that there can be additional issues with this form of representation.
retired parents claim advice please
