Expert dilapidations advice balanced by commercial acumen.
Expert Advice & Support
Dilapidations is a complex and challenging area of UK property law. If you are searching the internet for guidance on how best to proceed, or even for expert level assistance, then please do get in touch.


Why use an Expert?
You will find no over engineered sales pitch here. Dilapidations claims are founded in alleged breaches of lease covenants. Suggested remedies and cost information soon follow. How accurate are those position statements? Are elements time barred? Is there a pathology basis (hence the company name) supporting the alleged breaches? As a pre litigation course of action it is important to know that your claim or defence is robust and accurate. From modest claims that require nothing greater than negotaited closure through to complex High Court level disputes, and every variable in between, we are here to assist. Experts ultimately reduce costs, risks and business disruption.
Initial advice?
We very much welcome initial discussion. Please do feel free to call for an initial, no obligation, review.
Services
Our service is provided in three distinct stages:

Conflict Check
Of vital importance, as with any pre litigation action, is a conflict check. We complete this free of charge to ensure that independent advice is correctly handled.

Case Review
Understanding your business aims are pivotal and crucial. Repairs notice, lease break, interim or terminal schedule matters? Strategic advice? Depending upon case complexity and scale, of course, we generally do not charge to define how best to support.

Progression
We will prepare a case synopsis, and progression recommendation, for your evaluation. Specific risks or issues will be highlighted. We will support, at all stages, from inception through to conclusion.

Make contact
We look forward to hearing from you.
