Disputes with a neighbour can be stressful and put significant strain on the entire family.
Often, as the relationship worsens and communication breaks down, it can be hard to reach an amicable solution with your neighbour. That’s why many people choose the advice and support from an experienced solicitor.
When a boundary or other dispute arises with a neighbour, it is important to find a resolution that is as fair and as hassle-free as possible. Our lawyers are highly experienced in resolving a variety of neighbour, land and boundary disputes, and always seek to reach a quick, cost-effective and satisfactory conclusion in every case.
We understand that your situation is unique, which is why we take the time to fully understand the details of your dispute. For more information on how we can help resolve your neighbour or boundary dispute, please contact us.
Boundary, land or neighbour disputes can occur for a variety of reasons. The most common causes of these disputes often include:
Often, boundaries aren’t clearly mapped out, or can change significantly over time due to removal, replacement or adjustment, which can make disputes in this area surprisingly complex. Understanding the extent of these changes and which boundaries are applicable today can therefore give rise to serious and bitter disputes between neighbours.
Land Registry plans often offer little assistance in determining exact boundaries. However, despite this, some people rely on these plans when attempting to assert boundaries. This can result in further confusion.
If you have an ongoing boundary dispute with a neighbour, seeking the expert and clear advice of a solicitor can prove to be an effective first step in resolving the issue. For more information on how we can assist you, please contact us.
There are a number of steps you can take to resolve a boundary or neighbour dispute.
As a first step, we would always recommend talking to your neighbour. Sometimes, tempers can flare and emotions run high in neighbour and boundary disputes, but you may be surprised at what you can achieve through informal negotiations.
However, if you have attempted to talk to your neighbour and you are unable to reach a satisfactory resolution, contacting a solicitor can be an important and effective first step. Our solicitors are experienced in mediation and will always aim to resolve these disputes quickly and cost-effectively without pursuing legal action.
We understand that sometimes legal action is unavoidable, and our solicitors will be able to offer clear advice and a robust defence in the aim of achieving a positive outcome for your case.
