Request for an opinion
I received a bill from a conveyancing solicitor for £800 that I was not happy with and disputed, I made a formal complaint, and the response to my complaint was I had 4 days to pay in full or proceedings would immediately commence, I was on holiday at the time and forwarded my holiday address for service, I did not indicate when I would be back in the UK just said I was not in the UK, there was no reply to this.
This happened 1 year ago and I have not heard anything back regarding the bill, the solicitor was very aggressive with me, and I want to ask people how likely it would be he would attempt to serve me out of the Jurisdiction just to increase costs, where his claim could breach the £5000 bankruptcy threshold?
My question might sound irrational but I get anxious and want reassurance, I am not too concerned about any CCJ for £800, it's the potential insolvency risk I found worrying as the claimant was quite nasty.
