Professional Negligence Solicitors

If you’ve been let down by a professional, our litigation specialists can help you make a claim to put things right and even secure compensation.

Professional negligence claims: Expert legal advice

We all rely on other people to do jobs for us – builders, accountants, surveyors, yes, even solicitors! And when we pay a professional to carry out a job for us, we expect it to be done to a professional standard and completed properly. Most of the time the job is done, we pay the bill and both parties are happy. 

Unfortunately, there are times when the work is not finished properly – or you might uncover problems further down the line. When you’re let down by professionals, there can be serious consequences which you’re left to resolve. So what can you do?

We are here to help

Tees can help you hold professionals to account for the work they’ve done, and any problems it may have caused. Our team of professional negligence solicitors will assess the prospects of your claim and manage the financial risk of bringing court proceedings. 

When a professional doesn’t do their job properly, many people will try to sort it out themselves. The results of professional negligence can be devastating. We can help you recover damages for any losses you’ve incurred, and get an explanation of what went wrong.  We’re here to help put things back on track and find a solution that works for you. 

Very in-depth knowledge and much depth to the team. The advice is always on point with due consideration given to cost:benefit analysis.

Frequently asked questions

The answers to many of your questions can be found here, please get in touch for further information.

I have been told my property has development potential. What do I do?

If you’ve been contacted by a developer or a land promoter regarding a potential development to your property, you may wish to consider granting an option agreement or a promotion agreement. An option agreement is made between the landowner and the developer, where it is intended that the developer will apply for planning permission and requires an option to buy the property. A land promotion agreement is used where a developer agrees to apply for planning permission and will market the property for sale on the open market once planning permission has been obtained. This is usually in return for a proportion of the net sale proceeds. The law on this is very complex and you will need specialist advice.
