There is a lot at stake in many residential property disputes. A residential property often represents a significant asset, whether it is your residence, your only investment property or it is part of a portfolio of thousands. Apart from any financial value, a residential property is generally someone’s home – something which is a hugely important part of private life, and often engenders a strong sense of ownership, whether this is supported by legal rights or not.
With so much at risk, on all sides, residential property disputes can often turn bitter and intractable. This makes it all the more critical to get the right legal representation and advice.
Luscombe Gray specialises in all forms of property litigation and disputes. We can call upon many years of experience and legal expertise to ensure that your legal rights are protected and that residential property disputes are resolved as painlessly and effectively as possible.
We firmly believe in taking an ethical approach. We find that needlessly aggressive behaviour in property litigation is rarely productive, causing a wider rift between the parties, and risking greater financial harm. Luscombe Gray does things differently. Our strong, respectful approach yields more options for dispute resolution, such as mediation, which can be used where appropriate. This means the costs, and the disruption to your life and business, can be kept to a minimum.
Luscombe Gray can help with a wide variety of residential property issues including:
- Serving notices for possession
- Possession proceedings – under the accelerated procedure, based on arrears and based on other breaches of tenancy agreements
- Disrepair claims
- Deposit disputes
- Boundary disputes
- Party wall disputes
- Nuisance
- Restrictive covenants
- Rights of way
- Rights to light
- Adverse possession or ‘squatters’ rights’
- Claims for an order forcing the sale of a property
- Disputes arising from the sale and purchase of a property – including misrepresentation
If you would like to discuss the ways in which Luscombe Gray can help you, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Ownership of, and investment in, residential property frequently involves relying upon property professionals and their expertise. If a solicitor, surveyor, valuer or other property expert has fallen short of their professional obligations, Luscombe Gray may be able to assist you to make a professional negligence claim against them. This may be the only way to secure redress for the financial damage they have caused.
