Property Disputes

When your investments or livelihoods are at risk, it’s imperative that you get the right legal advice. Property disputes can be complex and Stephens Scown has an established team who can help find a resolution before matters spiral out of control.

You might be a landlord seeking dilapidation claims from a tenant or perhaps you’re having problems with a tenant. There are many instances when you might need legal advice with a property matter and our dedicated team are perfectly placed to provide professional and consistent support.

We are frequently able to help our clients without the stress and expense of going to court and are able to help with problems arising from tenant/landlord disputes, rent reviews, access over neighbouring land in order to carry out building works and mobile home parks.
