UK Parking Control Limited represented by DCB Legal has been exposed by Contestor legal Services
UK Parking Control Limited represented by DCB legal has on numerous occasions discontinued their claims before the final hearing or failed to defend the same. UK Parking Control Limited operates as an agent in most of the car park on behalf of the Principal (Landowner). As a general rule, a contract is formed directly between Landowners and drivers, and both Landowners and drivers may sue and be sued on it. An agent is not party to the contract, and may not sue or be sued on it, unless contrary intention appears.
In order to succeed in their claim for breach of contract, parking companies need to prove their entitlement to enter into contract with drivers on behalf of the Landowners and equally issue proceedings . This is known as standing or locus standi.
A standing or locus standi is a legal right or capacity to issue proceedings either in their own name or on behalf of the landowner. In cases where we have been instructed by our clients, we discovered that UK Parking Control Limited neither have the right to issue parking charge notices nor issue proceedings on behalf of the Landowner. This raises a serious concern on the integrity and ethics on the part of their legal representative as officers of the Court. Under the SRA code of conduct, Solicitors are bound to uphold the rule of law and the proper administration of justice. It appears to us that the majority of claims are issued by DCB Legal on behalf of UK Parking Control Limited are in breach of the rule of law and proper administration of justice.
While we have encouraged our clients to file complaints to the SRA, we are also concerned on the amount of people finding themselves with no help and decide simply to pay the unlawful charges. We will not encourage you to pay any unlawful charges but seek for help first.
The good news is that we have successfully defended all our clients and will continue to do the same as a law firm. In some cases, UK Parking Control Limited were ordered by the Court to pay our client’s costs for unreasonable conduct. The most recent hearing took place before the County Court at Prestatyn. UK Parking Control Limited issued proceedings against our client for an alleged breach of the terms and conditions of the Car Park located at 263-265 Great Ancoats Street M4 7DB. As a primary issue, we raised before the Court that UK Parking Control Limited did not have right to issue parking ticket and proceedings on behalf of the landowner from their own evidence. The Court agreed with us and dismissed the claim and ordered them to pay £200 for attendance costs for unreasonable conduct. The outcome led UK Parking Control Limited to discontinue all the claims issued for the same car park.
