Property Dispute Mediation

A practical way to resolve property disputes

Property disputes can become expensive and protracted, particularly once solicitors are involved or court proceedings are being considered. Mediation offers property owners, landlords, tenants, investors and others an opportunity to find a practical solution without the delay and uncertainty of litigation.

An independent mediator helps those involved identify the issues that really matter, understand each other’s position and explore whether an agreement can be reached.

What property disputes can be mediated?

Mediation can help with a wide range of property disagreements, including:

– Landlord and tenant disputes

– Rent arrears and other payment disputes

– Service charges

– Dilapidations and property damage

– Property ownership and joint ownership disputes

– Boundaries

– Access and rights of way

– Development and building works

– Disagreements between property owners or investors

– The use or management of property

You do not need to know the precise legal nature of your dispute before contacting us. If you are involved in a property disagreement that you have been unable to resolve, we can discuss whether mediation might help.

How can mediation help?

Property disputes can involve much more than determining who is legally right. The parties may have an ongoing relationship, share ownership of a property, need continued access or simply want to resolve the problem without incurring disproportionate legal costs.

Mediation allows the parties to explore practical solutions tailored to the particular property and circumstances. It can take place before court proceedings are contemplated or alongside existing legal proceedings and legal advice.

I would like to thank you for the time you have spent in achieving in 4 hours, what we never achieved in 4 months. I think it is by far a much better process than solicitors and court.

I honestly feel that we now have a good chance of proceeding in an amicable way that hopefully in time will become a friendship with the children at its core. I do not think we would have achieved this through solicitors, and feel huge gratitude for your patience and gentleness.

It’s so much better to go through this process together in a calm and neutral setting, rather than being defensive at home or seeing a solicitor individually. You’ve been a great adviser on a tricky topic and the meetings were really productive.

Throughout this whole horrible process we have both felt that the system is designed to leave us hating each other and to have had your support in helping us get to this point has meant a great deal, so thank you for your support of us both and for reflecting everything so well.

Thank you for all you have done to make a very sad and painful process somewhat less painful!

Thanks for all your help. We are talking a lot more and generally getting on much better, we even stood next to each other at rugby AND are going to parents’ evening together!

You did more in 4 hours than our lawyers had done in 1 year. For that I am very grateful.
