Since its inception, the team has been named by Legal 500 and Chambers as one of the leading real estate litigation practices. We were the first to recognise the need for specialist contentious expertise and to set up a dedicated team for real estate litigation. We have the strength, experience and depth to advise and deal with the most complex matters for our clients.
Examples of the areas in which we specialise are:
- Interpretation of leases
- Covenant enforcement
- Business tenant renewals
- Rent review
- Break notices
- Dilapidations disputes
- Remedies
- Easement and covenant disputes
- Service charge disputes
- Party wall issues and boundary disputes.
We work closely with our clients to identify their objectives from the beginning so that, together, we can formulate strategic and tactical objectives, and provide clear, proactive and practical advice.
As well as contentious advice, we prioritise advising clients on litigation avoidance and are skilled in pre-emptive action such as injunctions.
If required, our clients have access to our real estate, environmental and other specialist lawyers with whom we work closely to provide the best possible advice. We also specialise in insurance related and professional indemnity work within the real estate sector, advising mainly insurers.
