Park Watch Claim Out Application FAQ

1. What exactly is a Park Watch Claim strike out application?

A strike out application is a legal request to have Park Watch’s Claim dismissed early without going to trial because the claim is legally flawed or improperly pleaded. It’s a fast, solicitor-led process that removes stress and risk from defending the case.

2. Why do I have to pay to strike out a claim?

Making a strike out application mean you are making a formal legal application to the court with the goal of winning the case quickly, without needing to prepare a full defence, attend court, or deal with months of legal stress.

Park Watch want you to feel overwhelmed. They rely on people giving up or paying out of fear. But when you use our solicitor-led strike out process, you skip the stress and put them on the back foot fast.

3. How much does a strike out application cost?

The total cost is £349 and its free if you are on benefits or low income but here’s the important part: you get it refunded either way, and you could even receive a bonus on top.

Here’s the breakdown:

£313 – This is the official court fee, set by the government

£36 – Covers admin, solicitor prep, and submission handling

This isn’t a service fee or consultancy charge it’s the real legal cost to apply to the court to strike out the claim.

What makes this different?

✅ We apply on your behalf using a regulated solicitor

✅ We aim to recover the costs from the Park Watch

✅ You get your £349 back in full — whatever the outcome

✅ If we win, you get a 10% bonus on what we recover

4. What happens after I upload my Park Watch Claim form?

You’ll get an instant eligibility result.
If eligible, you can proceed with the £349 Strike Out Package.
Once paid, we prepare and submit the application and you don’t need to do anything else.

5. Will I need to go to court or submit a defence?

No. The strike out process is designed to avoid hearings altogether.
We deal with everything through our solicitor you are kept informed but do not need to attend court or submit a defence.

The solicitor handling your case will do all the necessary work on your behalf and attend the hearings or respond to the court and Park Watch.

6. What if I’ve already sent a defence or witness statement?

Unfortunately, strike out applications must be made early in the legal process.

If you’ve already:

– Acknowledged the claim
– Sent a defence
– Submitted a witness statement
– Received a judgment

…then we cannot proceed with a strike out. These applications rely on challenging the claim before it progresses.

7. How long does it take to resolve the case?

Most cases take 3 to 6 months, depending on the court’s availability.
You’ll be notified of any court hearing dates (which you usually don’t need to attend) and kept updated throughout.

8. I’m on benefits or low income, can I still apply?

Yes. You can apply for a Help With Fees code from the court. If accepted, you only pay £49 and the court waives the rest.
We’ll guide you through the process.

9. Is this a real legal service with real solicitors?

Absolutely. Every strike out application is reviewed, prepared, and submitted by our regulated solicitor partners.
This is not a template service it’s a real legal challenge, built to win.
