GLD would strongly prefer electronic service of new
legal proceedings in the UK that are required to be
served on the Treasury Solicitor.
New Legal Proceedings in the UK which are required to
be served on the Treasury solicitor can be served as
follows:
For all new legal proceedings issued in the UK
except for new immigration proceedings:
By email at: newproceedings@governmentlegal.gov.uk
For new immigration proceedings i.e.:
- Immigration High Court judicial reviews
- Immigration habeas corpus applications
- Immigration family court proceedings
- Appeals to the Court of Appeal challenging
Immigration Upper Tribunal Appeal decisions
Please email ImmigrationAdminTeam@governmentlegal.gov.uk
For immigration judicial reviews:
Immigration judicial reviews issued in the Immigration
Upper Tribunal should be served on the Home Office.
For Litigation correspondence related to the
Department for Work and Pensions:
Correspondence which would normally be sent to Caxton
House may, for the duration of the current emergency
only, be emailed to legal.queries@dwp.gov.uk.
The email addresses above are for the service of new
proceedings only: any other correspondence addressed to
it will be deleted unread. For all proceedings
(including in the Supreme Court) once a GLD case
officer has been allocated the case all subsequent
service should be effected on their, or any nominated
successor’s, GLD email address. Where you have served
by email please do not send hard copy duplicates of any
documents.
