Resolving property disputes with clarity, speed and confidence

When property issues escalate, the stakes are high. Whether you’re a landlord, tenant, investor or developer, a dispute can threaten your financial interests, delay plans, and strain important relationships.

We provide clear, strategic advice to resolve property disputes swiftly and sensibly – helping you protect your assets and move forward with certainty.

From boundary disagreements to complex commercial landlord and tenant claims, our experienced team is here to support you.

Tailored advice, whatever the property problem

We act for commercial landlords, tenants, developers, residential property owners, and investors, delivering bespoke advice at every stage of a dispute – from early negotiation to litigation or mediation where needed.

We regularly advise on:

  • Boundary and right of way disputes
  • Easements and restrictive covenants
  • Landlord and tenant disputes (including forfeiture and dilapidations)
  • Leasehold disputes and enfranchisement
  • Nuisance and trespass issues
  • Possession claims and rent arrears
  • Property ownership and beneficial interest claims

Whether you own a single property or a large portfolio, we help you find the most effective route to resolution.

Many thanks for all the effort on this one. Really appreciate everything and calming me down at the stressful times. I have already told a lot of people about the excellent service I got on the sale (and confident excellence will continue on my purchase).

Thanks so much for all of your help with getting this done! You have been invaluable. All the best, Lisa

Amazing! Thank you so much for all your help! You’ve been brilliant.

Thank you very much for your support and high quality guidance. I’ve enjoyed working with you tremendously.

Thanks Saio for your amazing work! Feel so honoured to get to work with you

I just wanted to say thank you for all your help. Please believe me when I say It was truly appreciated.

I wish you all the best and will always recommend you.

Selling and purchasing a property can be very stressful at the best of times, never mind in the middle of a pandemic. However, your calm and efficient manner, always being at the end of the phone or email and most importantly, gaining my trust because of the consistency of your competence, made the whole process practically a pleasure!

I can confirm we have picked up the keys. We’d like to thank you for your swift and excellent work on our behalf and we’re certain you will be a great  success.

Very best wishes

Thank you so much!

We are very grateful for all of your help and hard work!

We are so happy to have sold this house at last

Oh thank you so so much! You are an absolute star!

I really appreciate it! Jacqueline
