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?

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.

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.
