Top 10 of 4,694 law firms for Formal Lease Extensions, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Formal Lease Extensions cover the statutory route for long leaseholders to extend their lease, typically flats, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 or related provisions. A solicitor handles drafting and serving notices, negotiating with the freeholder, and pursuing the extension through price agreement or referral to a tribunal if needed. They also advise on the impact on service charges, ground rent, and the new lease terms, and manage the conveyancing steps to register the extended lease.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The act creates deadlines and strict steps, such as serving a Section 42 notice and potentially negotiating a price under Section 45. If terms cannot be agreed, the matter may progress to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal or the Upper Tribunal. A solicitor provides regulatory knowledge, ensures compliance, and coordinates the related registrations and notices to protect the client’s interest and avoid gaps in title.

Charles Smalley

Tagged solicitor Charles Smalley

A thorough and professional service. The solicitor understood exactly what was needed and prepared a clear Deed of Variation that could be acted on by the executors. It took longer than the estimated 10 days, largely due to the unavoidable delays due to the long use of the paper post system.

I would certainly without a doubt recommend her , I cannot fault her at all , she would always keep me updated and was always prompt in returning my calls. Thank you so much Bethany for everything , 100 % service. I will miss her cheery voice.

Kalim Akhtar

Tagged solicitor Kalim Akhtar

This is the second time I have used Kalim at Elite Law for conveyancing . The first time was excellent service, very pro-active and professional. Therefore, the choice was simple to use him again. The service was just as good this time. Again he was pro-active, pushing to get completion in a very professional way.

We have just completed a difficult sale and purchase, throughout the conveyance Rothera Bray have been there for us. Joanne Clarke and Nirvair Kaur Singh worked hard to keep things on track and together with Jackie Murphy we are now safely in our new home. We would definitely have no problem recommending Rothera Bray based on our experience. Thank you
