Landlord and Tenant

Comprehensive Expertise in Residential, Commercial and Agricultural Property Disputes

Our barristers are highly experienced in handling a wide range of property disputes across residential, commercial, and agricultural tenancies. We regularly appear in both first instance and appellate courts, as well as specialist tribunals, advising on matters such as possession proceedings, leasehold enfranchisement, rent disputes, unlawful eviction, and breaches of covenant. Our expertise also extends to proceedings under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, as well as leasehold valuation tribunal work involving service charges, lease variations and right to manage applications.

We also provide tailored advice and representation in agricultural matters, including grazing agreements, notices to quit, rent reviews and succession issues. Known for our practical, responsive and cost-effective approach, we work closely with clients to resolve disputes efficiently, whether through litigation or alternative dispute resolution. Our team includes qualified mediators and we’re well placed to assist with both urgent applications and long-term strategic advice.

Leasehold Valuation Tribunal

Our work covers a range of issues, including: applications relating to service charges, administration charges, estate charges, variations of leases and the right to manage; leasehold enfranchisement, undue influence  and TOLATA claims.
