Many disputes regarding agricultural property arise between the landlord and his tenant. Such disputes require specialist advice, particularly where the tenancies are protected by the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 or the Agricultural Tenancies Act 1995.
For example, advice may be needed regarded the service or receipt of a notice to quit the premises or other statutory notices. Where a notice to quit is effective, advice may be required regarding compensation which may have to be paid.
