Property Law & Conveyancing

Property law covers a wide range of situations — from buying or remortgaging a home to setting out what happens when you co-own with someone else. We offer clear legal advice on conveyancing, declarations of trust, cohabitation agreements, and property ownership rights, helping you protect your interests whether you’re planning ahead or responding to a change in circumstances.

Property Ownership, Rights & Disputes

We help you understand where you stand and work towards fair solutions when property is shared, disputed or needs to be divided after a change in circumstances.

Cohabitation & Trustees

Whether you’re moving in together or sharing ownership, we’ll guide you through cohabitation agreements, trusts and how best to protect your share in a home.

Conveyancing & Remortgage Legal Services

Buying, selling or refinancing a home is a big step — we’re here to make the process clear, smooth and reassuring from start to finish.

Landlord & Tenant Law

Letting out a property brings with it a range of legal responsibilities — from setting up the right tenancy to dealing with licensing, possession, or unauthorised occupation. We advise landlords on assured shorthold tenancies, Rent Act protections, licences, and possession claims, offering clear guidance whether you’re managing routine arrangements or responding to a more complex situation.

Possession Claims and Eviction Advice for Landlords

When you need to take back possession of a property, we guide you through the legal process with clear advice and a practical, well-timed approach.

Tenancy Types and Landlord Responsibilities

From assured shorthold tenancies to Rent Act agreements, we help you understand your legal obligations and set things up on a solid foundation.

Licences, Squatters & Occupation Without Tenancy

If someone is living in your property without a formal agreement, we can help you take the right legal steps to regain control and protect your position.
