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.

Tagged solicitors Georgianna Kaya and John Rockliff Smart

I used John Smart at Richard Griffiths for the probate and sorting out of my Aunt’s Will. He was professional and helped us to sort out a tricky situation. I found him professional but not distant, easy to communicate with and available when I needed questions answered. I also used Georgianna and team for the conveyancing of the property I was selling. They were efficient and kept everything moving along nicely. Again it was always possible to get hold of someone to answer questions and report on progress. I highly recommend the firm. Everyone has been a pleasure to deal with.

Victoria Skelton provided outstanding support during a complex legal matter involving a former partner and a leasehold agreement. She demonstrated excellent knowledge of the legal intricacies involved and handled the situation with professionalism and clarity throughout. Her advice was always clear, practical, and well-considered, which gave me confidence during what was a stressful process.
