Questions we’re often asked

Speak to an expert

What real property cases have you acted on recently?

We successfully represented our client in a rare trial concerning the law of encroachment. The case (Relins linked above) delivered an excellent result for our client and provided useful guidance for practitioners in this complex and previously untested area of law.

What do your clients say about the team?

Last year’s Legal 500 client feedback included: “Professional, knowledgeable and competent. Exactly what you want” and “the team are positive and engaging. I have worked with several members in the wider team and from day one was provided with guidance and support in preparation for giving evidence. The team are experienced, but still relatively young and are full of energy”.

What about costs?

We approach every instruction by looking at the value our services can add. Wherever possible, we offer a range of pricing options tailored to your needs and the nature of your real estate dispute.
