Residential property disputes
Boundary disputes
Boundary disputes arise when two parties disagree about the position of a boundary, usually a fence, wall or hedge.
Neighbour disputes
Disputes with neighbours can involve nuisance behaviour, such as noise, antisocial behaviour, excessive pet disturbance, or other issues, such as high trees or damaged fences.
Land disputes
Land disputes can include right-of-way issues, where someone assumes they have the right to walk or drive over your land, or adverse possession, where someone occupies your land without permission.
Party wall disputes
A party wall is a shared wall that sits on the boundary of land between two – or sometimes more – different properties. These can include the walls between terraced or semi-detached houses. Disputes arise when work on one property causes damage to a party wall.
Commercial property disputes
Landlord and tenant disputes
We advise landlords and tenants in residential and commercial property sectors on various issues, such as tenancy breaches, dilapidation claims, rent arrears, service charges, squatters, damage to property, and lease extensions.
