residential and mixed use property disputes


Our specialist contentious property team deals with the avoidance and resolution of disputes involving residential and mixed-use property. Our clients include landlords and tenants, claimants and defendants, individuals, small and large businesses, institutions, charities and tenants' organisations.

The disputes we advise on include:

  • Repossession of property, including eviction of squatters
  • Recovery of rent and service charges
  • Rights of way, rights of light and other real estate disputes
  • Party wall, boundary and neighbour disputes
  • Adverse possession claims
  • Enforcement of mortgages
  • Conveyancing disputes
  • Leasehold management disputes, especially concerning service charges
  • Appointment of residential property managers
  • Right to manage advice and disputes
  • Disputed enfranchisement and lease extension claims
  • Property related solicitors' negligence
  • Property related insolvency disputes.

Many firms have experience of only commercial or only residential property. We have considerable experience of both. This means we are well-placed to advise in relation to mixed-use property.
