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.
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.

Tagged solicitor Kayleigh Ireland
For the passed 12 months we have been working with kayleigh on a new development project which involved a lease splits and refinance from bridging to standard mortgages. We cannot recommend Kayleigh enough. From her due diligence to availability and willingness to help us understand all the options at our disposal was second to none and we really couldn't have gotten through the tight deadlines without her dedication and reliability to what was a complex project. Thank you Kayleigh, we look forward to working with you again.

Tagged solicitor Katie McDermott
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We recently completed an extremely complex property sale and Brown Turner Ross handled it very well, especially Katie. There were multiple moving parts, tight deadlines, unexpected complications and a lot of pressure from different sides. Despite this, everything was managed with professionalism, focus and clear communication throughout. We always felt the process was being pushed forward and handled with care, even when challenges arose. A big thank you to the team for helping get this over the line — it was a stressful transaction and your support made a real difference. 🌸💖
