Top 10 of 4,693 law firms for Restrictive Covenant, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Restrictive covenants are limits on how land can be used, and they run with the land so future owners are bound by them. In England, a solicitor explains whether a covenant can be enforced, whether it can be modified or discharged, and helps you obtain releases from benefiting landowners. They draft and negotiate deeds to remove or alter the covenant, advise on implications for selling or mortgaging the property, and register any changes with HM Land Registry. The way these matters proceed depends on the covenant's terms and the likelihood of consent from the other party or a court order.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor defines the precise legal effect of the covenant, identifies who can seek modification or discharge, and handles the steps to obtain consent or a statutory discharge. They may prepare or negotiate a deed of release, apply for modification under grounds such as lack of practical benefit or changed circumstances, and ensure the new arrangement is properly registered and evidenced in title documents.

Mason Hallam

Tagged solicitor Mason Hallam

Mason did an excellent job preparing the legal documents for a Section 21 claim that turned into a long, drawn-out process due to the tenant. Throughout, he remained thorough, organised, and proactive, ensuring every document was accurate and submitted on time. His attention to detail and clear understanding of the legal requirements made a stressful situation much easier to manage. His communication was clear at every stage, and he was always quick to respond to queries. Mason also attended court with me, and having him there alongside the barrister was extremely beneficial in helping me understand what was happening on the day and what the next steps would be. Overall, Mason’s professionalism and commitment were outstanding, and his work significantly contributed to the successful outcome of this case. I would highly recommend his support to anyone dealing with a similar matter.

David Eminton

Tagged solicitor David Eminton

David was able to state where we stood on a restricted covenant and the report he produced was written in an understandable format He also answered emails in a timely manner and was also cheaper than other lawyers as he charged by the hour rather than a fixed fee like other solicitors.

Tagged solicitors Conor Greenan, Gillian Brown, Mandy Terras and Stacey Hamilton

We recently worked with Conor Greenan for our house purchase and we couldn’t be happier with the service. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. Communication was clear and prompt throughout the whole process, and we always felt informed about what was happening and what the next steps were. Any questions we had were explained in a way that was easy to understand, which really helped reduce the stress of buying a property. The whole transaction was completed smoothly and on time, and we felt fully supported during every stage of the purchase. We would absolutely recommend Conor Greenan to anyone buying a home and would happily use them again in the future. Also, special thanks to Gillian Brown, Mandy Terrace and Stace Hamilton for helping and making the purchase smooth.

Ella Parsons

Tagged solicitor Ella Parsons

It was a great pleasure using Ella for the sale of my property and purchase of my new property. Her communication was excellent , I’d quite often sit down on an evening doing the required paper work and asking questions (expecting a reply the next day) but would often get a reply promptly. She has amazing knowledge in all aspects of conveyancing and was able to advise with any questions that I had. I felt very confident using Ella through the whole process, I would highly recommend Ella to anyone who’s looking to buy or sell a property. Everything went very smoothly, Ella made the whole process seem very simple due to her experience and ability to deal with any problems immediately without the need for complications . Thank you for all your work

Charlie Bowden

Tagged solicitor Charlie Bowden

I had tried to sell my property unsuccessfully on several occasions, and this time my estate agent recommended Charlie. From start to finish she was highly responsive and supportive. I had some technical questions about some covenants on my freehold property and she gave me more solid and well educated advice than previous solicitors had. When we encountered hiccups, Charlie worked swiftly to resolve them and managed to draw the deal to exchange and completion most efficiently. She really did go above and beyond and I felt that I was in very safe hands from beginning to end.

Kalim Akhtar

Tagged solicitor Kalim Akhtar

I had previously dealt with Kalim in relation to the sale of my late father’s property, so when it came to handling the sale of my late mother’s property, I did not hesitate to instruct him again. Kalim was thorough, efficient, communicative and professional throughout the entire process. He kept me updated regularly, handled matters promptly. It was genuinely a pleasure dealing with Kalim and I am extremely grateful for all of his help and support. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable solicitor, and I will definitely use him again in the future.

Louise Langabeer

Tagged solicitor Louise Langabeer

We recently used Sleeblackwell for the sale of our house and couldn’t have been more impressed. Louise and her excellent team — Kim, Michelle, and Sharon — were proactive, intuitive, and consistently one step ahead throughout the process. They managed every stage with great professionalism and efficiency, often turning what could have been difficult challenges into complete non-issues. We had some complexities around restricted covenants, but their deep legal knowledge and clear explanations gave us total confidence and ensured everything was resolved smoothly. Communication was excellent, the advice was always sound, and the team’s calm, can-do approach made the entire experience remarkably stress-free. We would heartily recommend [Firm Name] to anyone looking for reliable, expert conveyancing solicitors and will definitely use them again in the future. Thank you, Louise, Kim, Michelle, and Sharon, for an outstanding job!
