Commercial Property and Land Dispute Resolution
Our expert solicitors advise companies, partnerships, charities, social landlords and individuals on all issues relating to commercial property and land dispute resolution. We also advise syndicates, investors, trustees and developers.
Our property dispute solicitors are specialists, they look to understand your objectives and, where appropriate, plan a strategy to achieve those wherever possible.
Our team also provides advice so that you can seek to avoid any issue or dispute in the future. For example, we advise developers who are considering purchasing a site, in considering with them matters such as restrictive covenants, rights of way, rights to light and boundary issues. We advise as to how these will impact on the proposed development and options for resolution if needed.
We adopt a practical and pragmatic approach and wish to achieve a commercial and cost-effective resolution for you. However, where litigation is needed, we will pursue this vigorously on your behalf. We enjoy working with your other professional advisers where appropriate. These may include surveyors, architects, planning consultants and engineers in order to deliver a full picture service.
Our expertise extends to court proceedings, mediations, arbitrations, Land Registry adjudications, Upper Tribunal Lands Chamber (formerly Lands Tribunal) proceedings and expert determinations, including PACT.
