Disputes

Our property litigators work closely with our other property lawyers to help our clients resolve disputes across every area of residential real estate.

There are many ways to resolve a dispute. To ensure we recommend the route most suited to each client's particular circumstances, it is essential that we fully understand their requirements from the outset, which in some cases may involve making site visits to the property in question.

Our litigation lawyers are experienced in court proceedings at all levels. Outside the courts we are regularly involved in arbitration hearings, and also achieve settlements on behalf of our clients through mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution.

We advise a broad spectrum of clients, both domestic and international, including private clients, charities, entrepreneurs, trustees and investors, some of whom own commercial portfolios.
