Property

Easements, Covenants & Boundaries

Litigation over the rights and obligations of private ownership of property is a rich area for regular instructions for chambers, and members of the Property Team frequently advise on contentious matters concerning rights of way, rights of support and light, covenants of all flavours, and disputes over boundaries. This includes work before the civil courts in respect of claims for declarations, injunctive relief and damages for trespass, but also in respect of applications to the Land Registry and before the First Tier Tribunal (Property Chamber).
