Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Forfeiture of Lease, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Forfeiture of a lease covers what happens when a tenant breaches a lease covenant or falls into rent arrears, allowing a landlord to end the tenancy or recover possession in England. A solicitor will outline the available routes, including pursuing relief from forfeiture or enforcing re-entry, and will advise on the timing and steps required to protect the landlord’s or tenant’s position. Real-world effects include potential possession orders, rent recovery, and decisions on whether alternative remedies should be pursued. The work reflects the balance between contractual covenants and statutory safeguards in English property law.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Forfeiture involves navigating breaches, possessor rights, and the possibility of relief from forfeiture under the Law of Property Act 1927. A solicitor handles drafting and serving notices, lodging proceedings in the county court, and coordinating with the landlord or tenant to secure a possession order, a relief application, or a negotiated settlement. The process often hinges on timely discovery of breaches, proof of arrears, and court discretion on relief and costs.

I used Katie at Hall Reynolds when buying some land from a neighbour. It was painless and all came together well. I would use them again.

Alyssa Hill

Tagged solicitor Alyssa Hill

I would like to thank Bank Solicitors, in particular Alyssa Hill, for assisting my Solicitor, Hayley Tenney. Alyssa was the first person I spoke to when I rang for a quote. She was very professional and responded by email the same day with a quote. I met her several times when dropping off documents and she was always very polite. On completion day, Hayley was away but she had left instructions with Alyssa so that the sale could go through in her absence, which it did.

We recently needed help with a commercial matter which was time sensitive. After calling Frances not only was she competitive on price but accommodated us by staying late on a very hot day. Everything was handled professionally and we are very grateful to her for above and beyond!

I switched to Burys Solicitors for my conveyancing needs midway through my purchasing process due to a poor experience with another firm. Despite the complexities of the purchase with flat as it fell under the building safety act, the staff acted nothing short of thorough, professional and promptly throughout the process. The purchase was navigated through many hurdles with the lending process. Despite these bumps in the road, I was always reassured and confident due to the solicitors at hand. They moved the completion through extremely quickly for me to move into my home as soon as possible. Rest assured, if you choose Burys Solicitors for your conveyancing, you won't be disappointed.
