Often properties can have accessways shared with or running through neighbouring properties. These can take many forms, but a common example would be a shared driveway.

If you have co-owned a property or cohabited with someone and a dispute has arisen between you, you may be able to make a TOLATA claim.

What is a TOLATA claim?

These are claims that determine the ownership of a trust of land that has been under joint ownership or sole ownership. They relate to the Trust of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act (TOLATA) 1996. The Act gives the court power to make decisions in property disputes between unmarried couples.

These can determine, following a relationship breakdown, who owns the property and who can continue to live in the property.

Our team are able to look at all options for resolving such issues, including through  negotiation or mediation.

If, however, it is necessary to bring a case before the courts we are experienced in litigating these issues and have sound knowledge to ensure your case is presented in the most favourable fashion.
