At M2M Community Solicitors we have knowledge and expertise in dealing with Penalty Charge Notices issued by local authorities and private land issues.
There are many parking tickets, which can be challenged for a variety of reasons, which we can assist with. There are some box junctions, which are illegal as well as other road markings, all of which can be challenged. There are strict deadlines once you have received a parking ticket so advice must be obtained immediately. Failure to appeal a parking ticket in time will result in judgment being entered and bailiffs attending homes looking to remove property.
We have a large number of clients who approach us once they have had a visit from a bailiff. If this is the first time that a client becomes aware of the Penalty Charge Notice and the matter is dealt with quickly around that time, an appropriate application can be made to the Court. The key in these types of cases will be – don’t delay.
There are also a number of ‘tickets’ called Penalty Charge Notices when a person parks on private land. The procedure for dealing with these types of cases is very different from tickets issued by a Local Authority or Transport for London. These ‘tickets’ on private land are an out of Court settlement for trespass. The merits of whether a person should pay or not need to be assessed on a case by case basis but factors to consider are in respect of location of signs, wording of the signs, height of the signs and lighting in that area.
BE AWARE – There are deadlines to respond to the Local Authority and the Court so please ensure that you act immediately
