Property Litigation and Dispute Resolution 

We regularly act on behalf of investors, landlords, homeowners and leaseholders in relation to all manner of disputes relating to residential and commercial property. 


Simone Ritchie, who heads up the team, is a Legal 500 recommended solicitor in property litigation. Simone and her team believe that the key to a successful outcome is to adopt a commercial, pragmatic approach with total transparency and open communication.


We identify the issues and possible pinch points before they occur, applying developed project management principles to each new case. We are tough when we need to be but pride ourselves on understanding your business needs so that we can provide innovative solutions in an energetic, decisive and dynamic manner with commercial containment of risk and above all, we will  protect your interests.


Whilst the aim is to resolve without the need to issue court proceedings, if a matter does proceed to court, then we have the specialist expertise and drive to get the best resolution for you on the best commercial terms.


Worried about the costs of perusing your case? 


We know the prospect of litigation and the costs involved can be somewhat daunting. We will always endeavour to provide our clients with fixed fees where possible. If we can't provide a fixed fee then we will provide detailed costs estimates and keep you updated at all stages of the process so that you can budget and properly consider the financial cost of pursuing your case to achieve a the best commercial outcome.
