The law is in place to help businesses owed £8,000 as much as it is PLCs owed £8 million, but if it can be expensive to hire lawyers, what hope is there for justice? Plenty. The legal system is designed to allow people to bring their own small claims, or defend them – without the need (or cost) of lawyers.

Once you have a little training, you'll be able to run small claims by yourself, and recover thousands of pounds – a sum which will mount up quickly if you are a business with a number of debtors, helping your profit margin to thrive.

In this six-part series (combined into a single sitting for your convenience), we show you how to bring or defend a small claim, how to conduct it through to a hearing and how to enforce judgment – in short, how to get justice in the Small Claims court that is no less sweet than in the High Court.

The settlement imposes binding child-safety obligations including time limits and age assurance, but leaves the core algorithmic feed unchanged and raises questions about whether this represents genuine accountability or a commercially managed outcome.

LNG Charterparty Hire Formula: Meaning Of JKM–TTF Pricing Spread

The Commercial Court ruled on a USD 29 million dispute over an LNG carrier charterparty's index-linked pricing formula, determining whether the "JKM-TTF spread" operated bidirectionally or only when JKM exceeded TTF. The decision examines how unprecedented market conditions—where European gas prices surged above Asian prices due to the Ukraine war—tested the contractual formula's application and whether rectification could remedy an alleged drafting oversight.

One-Punch Manslaughter – When A Single Blow Kills (Video)

A split-second decision can change lives forever. In one-punch manslaughter cases, a single impulsive blow, perhaps thrown in anger, fear or misguided bravado, leads to a tragic death. These ‘death by a single punch’ incidents are more common in the UK than many realise. Dozens of families every year are left devastated, with one family grieving an unimaginable loss, and another family shocked and fearful as their loved one faces a homicide investigation for an outcome no one intended. It’s a tragic reality, one moment of anger, one fatal assault involving a single blow, and two lives (and families) ruined.
