Property legal work beyond buying and selling
From adding someone to your title to buying your freehold, our property team gives advice tailored to your circumstances, with the costs set out before we start.
What we do
How we can help
Transfer of equity
Adding someone to the title of your home, or taking someone off it. It can be a delicate time, so we give advice tailored to your circumstances and register the change with Land Registry.
Remortgage
We deal with your new lender, pay off the old one and check your title at the same time, so it’s good and marketable for your new lender.

Most lenders want at least 70 years left on a lease. We help with a statutory lease extension or guide you through an informal negotiation with your landlord, and draft or approve all the documents.

If your property has never been registered with Land Registry, we analyse the paper title deeds and prove at least 15 years of ownership so it can be registered correctly.
Declarations of trust
Protect what you’ve put into a property. Often used by unmarried couples contributing unequal shares, a declaration of trust sets out how you own and share the value. We draft it to suit you.
Shared ownership
Buying a share of a property? We guide you through the lease so you understand your obligations and your options to staircase to a bigger share.
Rectification of titles
If a deed was drafted wrongly, or later changes have left your title defective, we draft the documents to put it right.
Enfranchisement
Collective enfranchisement is when the leaseholders in a building buy the freehold together. We advise on whether you’re eligible and handle the legal process.
