Your property dispute lawyers for party wall disputes.

Our expert solicitors are here to help you resolve or avoid a property dispute involving party walls.

Any property owner who intends to carry out works on or near the boundary of two properties must comply with the Party Wall Act. You may be looking to get an agreement with a neighbour, or perhaps you have a neighbour that has failed to get agreement from you? We are experts in quickly and efficiently resolving party wall disputes, and some common examples of issues we regularly resolve are:

  • To appeal a party wall award (note this has a strict statutory time limit of 14 days)
  • Where work has commenced without an agreement
  • Where there are problems with works that have been done
  • Taking action to enforce the terms of party wall awards, including recovering compensation payments

Contact us today for a no obligation discussion, and we can talk about how we can provide specialist advice.

We are also experts in related matters which concern disputes between the owners of neighbouring land, including boundaries, the Access to Neighbouring Land Act, rights of way and restrictive covenants.
