Residential Property Litigation

From trespass to renewal of leases

We provide a personal, flexible service for both private tenants and landlords, including those with significant property portfolios. We can offer advice on matters including covenants, renewals of leases and service charges as well as other issues such as nuisance. We’re also experts in professional negligence work, with expertise in acting for our clients against negligent surveyors, valuers and solicitors.

We scrutinise the small print and see the bigger picture

In property litigation, timescales can be critical so we’ll ensure you comply with all the relevant deadlines and advise you on any other issues you need to consider as part of a wider picture. The best action isn’t always court action, so we’re keen advocates of ADR and we’ll work with you to try and resolve matters favourably via mediation or other forms of resolution wherever possible.  We always act in your best interests and give you advice based on what’s best for your immediate and long-term financial goals.

Our team can advise on issues including:

• Adverse possession
• Buying the freehold for your property
• Residential long lease extensions
• Service charge and ground rent disputes
• Possession proceedings and arrears recovery
• Prescriptive easements
• Restrictive covenant and easement disputes
• Trespass
• Nuisance
• Orders for sale and declarations of beneficial interest (TOLATA)
