We have used Talbots for a recent possession order for a property. Their fees were clearly set out and in our opinion were very reasonable. We found the whole process easy to follow and the communication between ourselves and the solicitor could not be faulted in any way. They kept us informed of what was happening and any queries we had were responded to immediately. They ensured all the paperwork required was in order prior to the court application to ensure no delay. We would definitely use Talbots again and recommend them to others.

Property Litigation FAQs

What is property litigation?

Property litigation refers to the general process of resolving disputes relating to land, buildings or property ownership. This can be achieved through legal action, although it can also be done via negotiation or mediation. 

This can involve both commercial and residential properties, and may involve issues such as boundary disputes, lease renewals and breaches of covenant.

What types of property disputes do you handle?

Our expert property litigation solicitors handle disputes in a wide range of areas. These include, but are not restricted to, commercial lease disagreements, service charge issues, rent arrears recovery, boundary disputes, rights of way, dilapidations, and claims involving misrepresentation or adverse possession.

When should I contact a property litigation solicitor?

You should seek advice as soon as a dispute arises or looks likely. Early legal guidance can help you understand your rights and options and ultimately prevent escalation. Indeed, often it can help to resolve the issue before it reaches court.
