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.

Pauline Hodgson

Tagged solicitor Pauline Hodgson

I cannot thank Pauline enough for guiding me through what proved to be a very difficult and drawn out sale which included a complicated lease extension and dealing with some very difficult and demanding individuals and organisations. Her professionalism and attention to detail was outstanding and I will always been thankful for having her support. Anyone who has Pauline as their solicitor should rest assured they are in very good hands indeed. Therefore, on behalf of myself and my mother, thank you, Pauline, for representing us. We couldn’t have done this without you

I was recommended Holley & Steer through my estate agents and am so glad I instructed them for both my house sale and onward purchase. Kim gave me clear and regular updates at every step and I felt well informed and valued throughout the whole process.

Katy Raven

Tagged solicitor Katy Raven

We found Burnett Barker to be both efficient and helpful throughout our recent successful house purchase and sale, particularly given the extra pressure due to the covid restrictions and the associated reduced stamp duty period coming to an end. Katy Raven provided an excellent personal service and always responded readily to requests for information on progress.
