This area covers disputes about land, buildings, boundaries, and the ownership or value of property and other assets, including how they are used or controlled. A solicitor in this field drafts pleadings, reviews titles, leases, and valuations, secures or challenges registrations, negotiates settlements, prepares and files claims, and represents the client in court or in mediation. Proceedings often involve trespass, mortgage disputes, co-ownership, trusts over property, and enforcement or defense of orders.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The work involves navigating title deeds, leases, cadastral records, and valuation or survey evidence, and managing court procedures in the County Courts or High Court. A solicitor arranges expert evidence, handles disclosure and cross-examination, and pursues or resists injunctive relief, possession, or the sale of assets. Timelines, orders, and the protection of interests are central to the conduct of these cases.
