a friend of mine has just had a client do a runner from her yard (well more of a walk i guess!!)
she came in and announced she would be leaving after just a couple of months of being there - as she didnt like the hacking in the area (crazy- but fair enough - each to their own...)...then announced that she wouldnt be paying her months notice - and would be leaving that day and had already arranged transport......
obviously - my friend was SHOCKED...and stupidly (without thinking) gave her the horses passport.....
the problem is - that they didnt have a written agreement as their printer had packed up....but had a verbal agreement - and had a witness present....
any way - client has left - still no months notice paid... is there a case? i wasn't sure as it was a verbal agreement - athough there is a witness......
any info would be great......
thanks
