What should I do if I am being served papers in the UK?
If you are being served papers in the UK, it is important to remain calm and seek legal advice as soon as possible. You should carefully read the papers you have been served and take note of the deadline for responding. It is also important to keep a copy of the papers and any correspondence related to the case.
Being served papers does not necessarily mean that you are guilty of any wrongdoing. Seeking legal advice can help you understand your rights and obligations and guide you through the legal process.
Can you refuse to be served?
You cannot refuse to be served legal papers or court documents. Ignoring or refusing to accept legal papers does not exempt you from the legal proceedings. It can also have a negative impact on your case.
