Neighbour Disputes

One of the most distressing things that can happen to you is to fall out with your neighbour, especially over boundaries and property rights.  You cannot leave this problem behind, it is there at home with you constantly.

Our aim is to help you resolve your neighbour dispute as quickly and cost effectively as possible.  Such disputes are notorious for leading to lengthy and costly litigation, many incidents of which have been widely publicised in the media.

We can advise you as to your legal position and rights, communicate with your neighbour on your behalf and hopefully bring the matter to an end by reaching a sensible agreement.  Failing that we can litigate your case and look to assert or defend your rights before the Courts.

We offer fixed fee interviews and cost caps (you set the budget that we work within) to help you avoid the risks of a large sudden and unexpected legal bill.

In some cases you may be able to fund the case with the help of an insurance policy.  Many forms of insurance, e.g. home insurance etc carry an element of legal expenses cover.  We can check your policy to see if it has this cover.  If you are covered then the Insurer may ask you to use one of its Panel Solicitors.  However you have the right to choose your own solicitor and can insist that we represent and advise you.

If you are having any problems with a neighbour over any issues then please contact Daven Naghen for advice.

Testimonials

Jamie Dobbs FCILEx

"I should like to take this opportunity to express my very sincere and grateful thanks for Jamie's unfailing helpfulness and efficiency in all aspects of the handling of my late stepmother's estate. Jamie have always replied to my (many!) queries promptly and comprehensively which has been a enormous help throughout what I know can be a fraught and stressful process. Sadly, it is increasingly rare these days to experience the highs standards of service that Jamie has provided."

Gemma Mayer LLB

"I would highly recommend Maples Solicitors, especially Gemma Mayer, for any conveyancing work. The level of support and professionalism was excellent at all times. I also felt if I needed to ask or clarify anything that it was not an issue. Buying and selling a house is stressful enough, but Gemma helped me through it step by step."

Jamie Dobbs GCILEx

Over the last forty years I have cause to deal with many law firms both in a personal and professional capacity, including some ‘top’ London Companies. In all of those dealings I have never found anyone as proactive and so willing to offer help and advice as Jamie Dobbs. During the last two years Jamie guided my parents through the completion of Lasting Powers of Attorney. Helped myself with the use of the LPA and recently dealing with Probate and Estate Administration following their death.
