Top 10 of 4,693 law firms for Severing Joint Tenancy, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Severing a joint tenancy covers ending the right of survivorship in property held by two or more people as a single estate, so it becomes a tenancy in common. A solicitor helps by advising on the best method (deed of severance, or a notice under applicable express terms), drafting and serving the severance document, liaising with the Land Registry, mortgagees and other co-owners, and explaining consequences for future ownership and potential tax or benefit implications.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Severance changes ownership from a single surviving owner to distinct shares, which can affect mortgage rights and future disposal. A solicitor handles drafting and registration obligations, ensures proper service, and explains how the change affects rights of occupation and future claims by co-owners, executors, or potential beneficiaries.

Tagged solicitor Graeme Booth

Graeme dealt with the sale of my late mother's house in Cornwall. Under difficult circumstances of COVID, the service was excellent. He was always responsive to any questions/enquiries and even when he was away from the office he made sure there was continuity, resulting in a prompt sale completion. Thank you

Kiri Kkoshi

Tagged solicitor Kiri Kkoshi

Jane Baker, Vicki Lambert, and the whole wonderful conveyancing team at Healys (Kiri, Sam, Mariana, Alfie, and Kimberley to name a few!) have been our absolute heroes through the complex sale of our flat and purchase of our first house. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this team are some of my absolute favourite people, and I trust them entirely. They are fantastically skilled at their jobs, give timely insightful communication, and are deeply caring. Being part of a chain is unbelievably stressful, and their good humour and expertise was a sanity anchor through it all. Healys tend to have a large chain in copy, which means that asks and emails are always picked up super promptly. They keep really diligent records and this has always meant that the communication has been fantastic. They've gone above and beyond numerous times for us, adjusting and responding professionally to frankly surreal and unique situations caused by other parts of the chain - Kiri Kkoshi, Healy's Head of Real Estate, even intervened personally at one point to resolve an issue. We used their services when we bought our flat originally four years ago and naturally ran straight to them when it became time to sell! I would never use anyone else at this point, and would highly recommend them to anyone working out who to go to for their conveyancing needs. Jane, Vicki, Kiri, Sam, Mariana, Alfie, Kimberley and everyone else at Healys who worked with us these past 10 months - thank you. Truly could not have done it without you.
