Property and Tenancy Disputes

If you need to make a claim about an issue with your property, you’re on solid ground with Tees.

Residential property disputes - legal experts

Disputes about property can be very complicated and difficult to sort out. They cover so many things from mortgage disputes with lenders to boundaries and nuisance disputes with neighbours. Or maybe you’re in dispute with your landlord about your rent or repairs. You’ve probably tried to sort things out yourself, so what can you do if you’ve drawn a blank?

Our dispute resolution and litigation team understand property law inside out. We’re experienced in dealing with all types of propety disputes – so, whatever situation you’re in, we’ll help you get through it safely and with a minimum of fuss.

How we can help you

At Tees, we’ve been advising people about their property and property-related disputes for over a hundred years now. We’ve worked with large companies as well as individuals and families and we’ve also represented both lenders and borrowers, landlords and tenants. We’re one of the few firms in the country to have a specialist property litigation team – so we think it’s fair to say that we know what we’re talking about.

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

Mortgage disputes

We’ve helped lots of borrowers who’ve been struggling to keep up with their payments. If that’s you, one thing you definitely can’t afford is to do nothing. The sooner you take specialist legal advice, the better. We are experienced at talking to mortgage lenders and proposing solutions. Because we also represent lenders, we can see things from both sides which puts us in a really good position to give you straightforward, practical advice. 

Disputes with neighbours

Unfortunately disputes with neighbours are some of the most common property-related issues that we deal with. These can include nuisance complaints, such as noise, escape of water or subsidence from tree roots, boundary and party wall disputes, rights of way and trespass. If you’ve tried to sort things out amicably and been met with a brick wall, you’ll want to talk to someone who can take up your case for you. We also know that you’re probably going to have to go on living next door to the people you’re in dispute with, so we’ll handle things as sensitively as we can, whilst still standing up for your position. 

Landlord and tenant disputes

Unfortunately, landlords and tenants sometimes fall out too. It could be over rent arrears or repairs to the property. We can advise on domestic as well as commercial property disputes between landlords and tenants.

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.
