At Latimer Solicitors, we are proud of the positive outcomes we achieve for our clients across England and Wales. Property disputes can be complex and stressful, but with the right legal guidance, they can often be resolved fairly and efficiently.
Below are examples of how our property litigation team has helped clients protect their property rights and reach successful resolutions. All case studies are anonymised for confidentiality, but they reflect real situations and results achieved by our firm.
When you face a property dispute, it helps to know that your solicitors have dealt with similar situations before. Our case studies show how we approach each matter with professionalism, careful preparation, and a focus on practical results.
They also demonstrate our ability to resolve cases through negotiation, mediation, or where necessary, through the courts.
A homeowner contacted us after a long-running disagreement with a neighbour about a fence line. Both parties believed the boundary was in a different position. We reviewed the Land Registry documents, obtained a surveyor’s report, and guided our client through mediation. The matter was settled without court action, with a new boundary agreement registered to prevent future issues.
A leaseholder was facing demands for service charges they believed were excessive and unrelated to their building. We reviewed the lease, identified that the charges were not recoverable, and represented the client before the First-tier Tribunal. The tribunal ruled in our client’s favour, significantly reducing their liability and confirming the correct calculation of future charges.
Our client had maintained and fenced off a piece of unregistered land adjacent to their garden for more than 12 years. We prepared and submitted a detailed adverse possession application with evidence of long-term use and maintenance. The Land Registry granted our client ownership of the land, securing their boundary and increasing their property value.
A landlord sought our help when a commercial tenant failed to pay several months of rent. We issued a formal demand and began possession proceedings. The tenant settled the arrears before the final hearing, allowing the landlord to recover the full amount and regain control of the premises.
We represented a landowner whose property was repeatedly entered by individuals without permission. We obtained an injunction preventing further access and secured damages for the distress and inconvenience caused. The client was able to restore full control of their land.
Our results reflect our dedication to achieving fair outcomes for our clients while keeping the process as smooth and straightforward as possible.
