Being taken to court

Have you received letters or documents that look like someone is trying to take your not-for-profit organisation to court?

Are you unsure what the documents mean, or worried about what to do?

Our information sheet "Being taken to court" will provide you with basic information about:

• how your organisation will find out that legal action is being taken against you
• what you should do about that
• the costs of going to court, and 
• other court-related documents that your organisation might receive.

But don't mess around! Often, tight timeframes apply for defending legal actions so you need to understand the basics and get legal advice ASAP.
