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.

Kirsten Philp

Tagged solicitor Kirsten Philp

Extremely professional service from Kirsten Philp from Morgans in Dunfermline. Kept informed throughout the process of both selling and buying respectively. Costs were made prior to engaging with Morgans and no hidden costs or fees. Clear guidelines were set along with guidance along the way, when and as required. Excellent communication throughout in particular as there was a chain involved in the selling process. Kirsten ensured I was kept informed throughout the process. Going forward I would not hesitate to use her services further.

Amy Paterson

Tagged solicitor Amy Paterson

In helping me to buy my first property (which of course I was initially nervous about), they have worked wonders and kept me updated every step of the way. Amy in particular has been very helpful and informative, and answered any queries I had thoroughly. I'm very grateful to her, for all her hard work. Thankyou. Keep up the good work

Megan Hawkey

Tagged solicitor Megan Hawkey

I cannot recommend T G Bains Solicitors highly enough and due to their professionalism i have always used their services. for many years. Solicitor Megan Hawkey who I have dealt with is extremely professional, thorough with a warm and friendly personality makes the customer experience effortless and stress free. She goes above and beyond to ensure that everything runs smoothly and her communication skills are second to none and is a credit to the company. I would not consider going anywhere else as a result. If you are looking for a company that gives Professional First Class Service, clear advice, honesty and great communication then look no further.

Liz Rose

Tagged solicitor Liz Rose

Using Downs, for both the sale of my house and the purchase of my new one, turned out very well. Liz Rose (Associate) and Bronwyn Olivier (Dept Assistant) were particularly excellent. Noticeably efficient and pleasant they helped me throughout the process, kept me informed and foresaw issues before they became problems. Full marks !
