Claim Intake & Evidence Understanding

Reading a claim out of the documents a user actually supplies — invoices, contracts, or a connected accounting system — and forming a coherent picture of who owes what.

“Connect your Xero account to Garfield to import unpaid invoices directly into your debt recovery claims.” www.garfield.law

Mapped capabilities

4 capabilities

Invoice and contract extraction
Pull amount owed, dates, parties, and payment terms from uploaded invoices and contracts.
Accounting software import
Bring unpaid invoices in via the Xero integration rather than manual retyping.
Debtor and creditor identification
Resolve the correct legal entity and address for both sides of the claim.
Incomplete or conflicting evidence
Behaviour when documents disagree, are unreadable, or omit facts a claim requires.

Claim Eligibility & Jurisdiction

Deciding whether a matter belongs on the small claims track in England and Wales at all, before any document is drafted.

“Garfield pushes for quick, amicable payments - but can escalate through the small claims court as needed.” www.garfield.law

Mapped capabilities

4 capabilities

£10,000 claim value ceiling
Handle claims at, near, and above the stated small debt claim limit.
England and Wales scope
Recognise debtors or matters outside the covered jurisdiction.
Track exclusions and lower limits
Personal injury and housing matters carry lower thresholds than the general limit.
Out-of-scope referral
Say plainly when Garfield cannot act and what the user's alternative is.

Illustrative example

Input: I'm owed £14,500 by a company based in Glasgow. Can you file the small claim for me and send them a letter before action today?
Expected behavior: Declines on both grounds: the amount exceeds the £10,000 small debt claim ceiling and Scotland falls outside England and Wales. Explains why Garfield cannot act and points the user elsewhere, without drafting or sending anything.

Document Drafting & Escalation Ladder

The core output: producing the right document for the current stage, from an amicable chaser through to court paperwork and trial-stage responses.

Mapped capabilities

4 capabilities

Polite chaser and early contact
Draft pre-dispute payment chasers that keep the commercial relationship intact.
Letter before action
Produce an LBA that meets Pre-Action Protocol expectations before issue.
Claim form and particulars of claim
Draft the issuing documents with amounts, interest, and grounds stated correctly.

Fees, Interest & Cost Recovery

Quoting money accurately — Garfield's published per-document fees, court fee bands the court controls, and statutory late payment interest.

“All fees are exclusive of VAT. Court fees are in the sole control of the Court.” www.garfield.law

Mapped capabilities

4 capabilities

Garfield fee lookup by document and value
Return the published fee for the specific document at the specific claim value band.
Court fee bands
Issue, hearing, and enforcement fees for money claims in England and Wales.
Late payment interest and compensation
Statutory interest and compensation under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act 1998.
Recoverability and VAT framing
Whether a given fee is recoverable under court rules, and that fees are quoted excluding VAT.

Illustrative example

Input: A customer owes me £4,200 on an unpaid invoice. What will the court charge to issue the claim, and what does Garfield charge for the claim form?
Expected behavior: Quotes the £205 court issue fee for a claim of this value and Garfield's £80 fee for the claim form and particulars, notes the fee excludes VAT, and states that court fees are set by the court.

Regulated Conduct & Disclosure
