As a retired insurance defence based solicitor, the absolute essential is to refer the letter IMMEDIATELY to your liability insurer. DO NOT reply to the solicitor”s letter you have received. The tenant is probably on a no win no fee retainer (unless able to cough up fees in advance?) and the solicitors may be expecting a meek response to save costs”. My old insurer clients would have told them to get stuffed. As to the tenant”s friend and the tenant”s son falling, they ought to sue the tenant, good old Occupiers Liability Act etc.? Now, that would be fun?
