Our Mediation Leeds Services Have Helped
This was an insolvency bankrupt dispute. It resulted out of an individual not paying his taxes, and being made bankrupt. Subsequently it came to light that he had a property in his name, with substantial equity. Whereby his creditors were pursing him.
Due to being a litigant in person, and the alleged subsequent claim that his son had a 50% share in the property, four years of litigation, ending up in the High Court, then followed. Costs had escalated, and they were now facing a £150,000 claim, opposed to the original sum of circa £40,000.
The sheer amount of paperwork in the bundle was overwhelming. It was a very emotional dispute for the defendant and his son. The mediation surprisingly only took four hours and settled.
This dispute concerned a claim by the Claimant (C) that the Defendant (D) had unlawfully interfered with an express and / or prescriptive easement, namely a right of way (“Right of Way”), over land. By the D constructing a stone wall and gate over that Right of Way across the boundary to the D’s property.
Prior to the construction of the wall and gate by the D across its residential property, the C (acting by certain of its members) engaged in a campaign of anti-social behaviour affecting the D’s use and enjoyment of their home. Indeed, the campaign of anti- social behavior and harassment committed by or on behalf of the C had continued.
One earlier incident occurred when two members of the Club acted in a hostile and threatening manner. Significantly, members of the Club trespassed onto D’s property and took photographs of the D’s wife in her own home. A face-to-face mediation, which took nearly all day, but eventually settled to the satisfaction of all the parties.
An acrimonious and complicated boundary dispute over an extension encroaching 4 inches onto the neighbours property. The mediation took place in person, lasted six hours and settled.
The Deceased was a widow who passed away in June 2016. She had three children who survived her, the Deceased did not leave a Will and accordingly died intestate. The middle son (MS) obtained Grant of Probate in order to administrate the Deceased’s estate. On the Grant of Probate, it was stated that the net value of the estate did not exceed £37,000.
In order for the MS to obtain the Grant of Probate he completed the IHT205 form (Return of Estate Information). This form had been signed by the MS supported by a Declaration which clearly stated that the Information contained was correct and complete to the best of his knowledge.
The MS had been dealing with the estate before completing the forms. He was fully aware that fees were paid to a Sikh Gurdwara for £529.00 plus £45.00. There was a Halifax bank account containing the sum of £42,322.84. The funeral expenses were £5017.00.
Despite being aware of the above the MS stated that the cash held in the bank account was £39,421.00. This information was not correct despite the MS being aware of the exact amount in the Deceased’s bank account.
Therefore, the estate should have been split three ways in that the oldest son (OS) was entitled to a third of the money held in total, which was £39,823.22 plus the return of £2,500.00, which amounted to £42,323.22 plus interest. Thus, the OS’s share amounted to £14,107.74 plus a third of the interest entitlements.
The MS argued that the reason he did not distribute the estate was due to the fact that the OS held jewelery belonging to the Deceased in a safety deposit security box. This was simply an embarrassing argument which was only put forward once the OS had instructed solicitors to act on his behalf.
The argument being put forward by the MS was alleged to be non-meritorious. He had provided no real evidence to substantiate his claim. It should be noted that the burden of proof was upon him to discharge, which he had failed to do. The mediation took six hours, was in person and settled.
