Residential Property Disputes

When your home or investment property is affected, disputes can quickly become personal and stressful.

Our residential property dispute solicitors understand the emotional and financial toll such issues bring and provide clear, pragmatic advice to help you regain control.

We regularly advise on:

  • Boundary disputes and encroachment.
  • Joint ownership disagreements between co-owners, friends or family.
  • Leasehold and freehold disputes over service charges, management or nuisance neighbours.
  • Planning refusals and appeals against local authority decisions.
  • Restrictive covenants that limit how you use your land.

We seek resolution through negotiation or mediation wherever possible, and pursue court proceedings only when necessary to protect your position.

Commercial Property Disputes

Commercial property disputes require swift, decisive action to minimise disruption and protect asset value.

Our commercial property dispute solicitors act for landlords, tenants, investors and developers on all aspects of commercial property litigation and advisory work.

We advise on:

  • Lease renewals and terminations under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
  • Break clauses, forfeiture and dilapidations.
  • Rent and service charge recovery.
  • Development and rights of light disputes.
  • Restrictive covenants and easements.
  • Possession and trespass claims.

We combine technical expertise with practical solutions — often resolving matters through negotiation or ADR before litigation becomes necessary.

A big thank you to Reema for all her help. Reema was absolutely amazing when it came to our eviction process, making it completely stress free. She was very clear and thorough throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Hodge Jones & Allen solicitors and especially Reema for her wonderful help. -Theo
