Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I originally trained and qualified in the field of Electronic Engineering and subsequently read Law at Brunel University before attending the College of Law in London for my Legal Practice Course, and went on to qualify as a Solicitor in 2012. My practice includes general and property litigation, and leasehold matters, specialising in lease extension and enfranchisement matters, as well as Landlord and Tenant issues for either Landlords or Tenants including service charge disputes, ground rent arrears and the right to first refusal under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987. With considerable experience in lease extension and collective enfranchisement claims, under both the Leasehold Reform Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 and the Leasehold Reform Act 1967, for Freeholders and for Lessees, I am able to provide detailed advice to clients on the processes involved, eligibility, timescales and costs as well as the finer details and idiosyncrasies of the legislation itself. Having trained as a litigator from the outset of my career in Law, I am also able to provide detailed Dispute Resolution advice to clients on a range of matters, advise on enforcement of judgments and assist resolving disputes either before they make it as far as Court proceedings or through the Courts.

    Absolutely fantastic

    Ben is simply brilliant. From the first moment I spoke to him, he was completely reassuring about the whole process of lease extension which was something that we have never done before. His professional approach and calming manner left us completely happy that we were in excellent hands and he managed every aspect of the process with care and patience. He was very clear in his communication and we knew exactly what was needed of us at every stage. Furthermore he was unique in directly communicating with us himself. This clarity of communication and professionalism are what make him stand out a mile. I have no problem whatsoever recommending everyone I know to him. Thank you Ben - truly grateful for your help!

    Ben Colenutt - Excellent solicitor

    Ben Colenutt acted on behalf of our freehold company in preparing a Licence To Alter. He was excellent throughout the whole process. Professional, thorough and extremely knowledgeable, he was also patient in explaining complicated legal terminology. His expertise and attention to detail was exceptional and I had absolute confidence that he was acting in our best interests. In addition to his professional knowledge he was also friendly and approachable which was very welcome. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and thorough legal advice.

    Exceptional Advice and Support

    I had the pleasure of working with Ben Colenutt, Legal Studio during a particularly challenging building dispute, and I cannot praise their services highly enough. Over the past 23 months, their relentless support, sound advice, and professionalism have been exceptional. From the initial visit to my house in May 2023 to the successful conclusion of the matter, Ben Colenutt provided guidance that was not only insightful but also encouraging. Their expertise and dedication were instrumental in navigating the complexities of the dispute, ensuring that every step was taken with confidence and clarity. I am extremely grateful for their assistance and the outcome achieved. Their approach to the case was always thorough, and they demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal intricacies involved. The professionalism they exhibited throughout the process was second to none. While I hope not to require their services again, I will undoubtedly recommend Ben Colenutt widely to anyone in need of exceptional legal support.

    I recently used Ben Colenutt from Jamieson Alexander to help buy the freehold of my property. He was extremely responsive and professional, making dealings with a difficult council a lot easier. I will be recommending him to my friends and will definitely go back to them for any legal advice that I may need.
