Original Note:
Sending a letter before action is not "starting legal proceedings". The very point of a Pre-Action Protocol LBA is to "try to settle the dispute *without* [legal] proceedings". The Good Law Project have previously had to apologise for misleading statements such as this. https://contend.legal/courts-and-procedure/ultimate-guide-to-writing-a-letter-before-action-in-the-uk/
