Ready To Go: 3 Steps To Your Claim Assessment

Step 1 of 3

Ready to go: Step 1 of 3 – Your agreement

We need to ask you to provide some information and documentation, so that we can check that we can work for you.

If you feel you understand everything, and want to instruct us to have a preliminary consideration of your matter, please tick the boxes below.(Required)

I confirm that I understand that I am instructing Cunningtons LLP to consider whether or not I might have a misrepresentation claim but this does not guarantee that I do have a claim with a real prospect of success and the advice I receive may not be positive.

I confirm that I understand that I am instructing Cunningtons LLP on a limited basis, and that if I am advised that there does appear to be reasonable grounds to pursue a claim because the basic elements of it are there, a fuller investigation and consideration of further evidence and the circumstances of the matter may still be required to assess the risk of proceeding further. I also understand that following a full review and as matters progress generally, the advice previously provided on the merits of the claim can change as new evidence comes to light. I have read and understood your page on who this service is for and what Cunningtons can and cannot do. (You will not be charged anything more than our fixed fee quoted to you until any further charges are agreed with you).

I confirm that I have read and understood your page on evidence and have my documents and information ready to upload.

I confirm that I have read and accept your terms and conditions

I confirm that I instruct Cunningtons LLP to proceed as soon as possible with providing me with preliminary advice on whether or not there are grounds to pursue a misrepresentation claim.

I confirm that if I change my mind before Cunningtons LLP starts work but I have paid sums to it, I will need to undertake a full online ID verification at a cost of £17.50 +VAT before any funds can be returned to me.

I understand that Cunningtons LLP may, in its sole discretion, decide not to accept my instructions. (There may be a number of reasons why we cannot work for you. Any sums paid for our fixed fee service by you would be refunded in full if we decide we cannot work for you.)

I agree to my data being stored and used as set out in the Privacy Policy.

Ready to go: Step 3 of 3 – About your claim

Please tell us when exchange of contracts took place

This is important. A misrepresentation claim is based on the fact that a buyer was induced by a seller to enter into a contract. If you are not sure when exchange and completion took place, leave these dates blank and we can check in due course. A contract is entered into when contracts are exchanged. Therefore, things said AFTER exchange of contracts cannot generally be said to be things that were relied on by the seller which led them to enter into the contract.

Please tell us when completion of the purchase took place

Please upload a copy of the contract of sale if you have it

We need to consider the contract of sale. It may contain contractual clauses which are relevant to any claim. We can still provide a preliminary assessment of whether or not you have a claim without it, but the contract itself could change our advice significantly, and we would need to see it anyway, if you do decide to take things further. To get the most out of our service, we recommend you provide us with the contract for consideration.

We need to understand why you feel that you have been misled by the seller.

a. Please upload any documents that the seller provided to you (via your solicitor or otherwise) that you relied on when deciding to proceed with your purchase and that you consider are factually inaccurate

These might be things such as the property information form (TA6), leasehold information form (TA7) or your solicitor’s enquiries and the seller’s responses to those. It might be text messages or emails between you and the seller directly, or perhaps between you and the seller’s estate agent (although this is less likely to enable a claim to be pursued). What is important is that the document contains a factual assertion of something that you relied on and which you consider to have been inaccurate.

c. If you feel that you were misled by the seller by reason of something that they said to you orally, please explain what was said and how it was misleading

Please be as accurate as possible, ideally explaining the precise words used, when they were said and by who. If other people witnessed the conversation, please tell us who.

d. Please upload any documents that you have and which you believe proves that what you were told by the seller, or what you were provided with by the seller, was factually inaccurate
