Disputes About Boundaries Articles and News
Boundaries between properties can be uncertain for a whole range of reasons. If the boundaries are natural, such as a hedge or waterway, they can move over time. In other cases, someone may have made a mistake by building a fence or wall in the wrong place, or the Land Registry may not have recorded the boundary properly. In any of these cases, you could get into a dispute with your neighbour, if they are not willing to resolve matters amicably with you. Disputes about boundaries can escalate if not handled professionally from the outset. Our experts can help you resolve the problems you have with your neighbour about where the boundaries of your property lie. In many cases, you will be able to have an initial free no-obligation conversation with a lawyer, who will be able to advise you what the next steps are.
