Property & Boundary Disputes

At George Ide, we understand that disagreements over property, especially between neighbours, can quickly become stressful and unpleasant, spiralling into complicated – and often costly – long-running disputes.

So it is important to consult a specialist dispute resolution professional as soon as possible after a problem emerges, before matters get too far out of hand and neighbourhood tempers fray beyond repair.

Our expert team will take the time to get to the heart of the problem, then act swiftly, decisively and sensitively towards a pragmatic, workable solution built on your best interests. Ideally, we will help you resolve your dispute without going to court but, if necessary, we are well-versed in successfully defending our clients’ interests at court or at a tribunal.

Always on your side

Over the years we have amassed a wealth of knowledge and extensive experience in a wide range of property disputes including claims for disrepair and possession proceedings. We can assist with planning permission disputes, help recover land and premises from unlawful occupiers or squatters, and act in misrepresentation or property misdescription cases, for example.

Both Michael and I are very grateful for your good wishes and for the continued support that both you and all your colleagues at George Ide have given us through this process.
If, for any reason, we find ourselves in need of legal advice we would most definitely make your company our first choice and would also have every confidence in recommending you to others.

Jan and Michael Gosling

Paul Lewis

Thank you for your email and thank you so much for your help with it all. You have dealt with everything brilliantly so as not to cause me any stress or worry so thank you.

Rachel Cook

Paul Lewis

Thank you seems such a trivial word and yet without your tenacity, we would not be here today. For all the medical providers you sought out and your words of stability at each and every stage I cannot thank you enough. You will never know how much of a difference you have made, without your constant reassurance and steps of transition to medical assistance especially during Covid I know I would not be at this stage on my journey.

I take this opportunity to thank you for the support, professionalism, and wonderful advice you gave us throughout this difficult time. It was a very stressful period for us as it was our first experience with the court. Without all your help and legal advice, I would undoubtedly have been in a much more precarious situation. Thank you so much for your support and hard work. On behalf of me and my wife I would like to say a big thank you for taking up my case and representing us as our legal counsel. When we thought it was too much to handle, you were there for us to give us strength and hope. We always found you to be very friendly when we needed any legal advice. Once again, I thank you so much for your understanding, for your patience, your dedication to my case and most of all, thank you for being friendlier, making us more comfortable with your advice and guidance than just a mere professional lawyer during that difficult moment. This means a lot to us, and we will be forever grateful to you.

Dear Paul. Thank you so much for negotiating a satisfactory sum (exactly as you had predicted) and I am very grateful to have had the benefit of your excellent service throughout this ordeal. Horrid though it was, your expertise and guidance were of immense help. We can now happily put this whole thing behind us and finally move on. With very warm thanks and best wishes.

Ian Oliver and Paul Lewis of George Ide Solicitors, and their appointed barrister, were outstanding in helping us defend an HMO licensing prosecution by a local authority. This was a complex matter which should never have been taken to trial by the local authority. However, thanks to the care, knowledge and tenacity shown by George Ide, the correct judgment was given. Thanks again for guiding us through this stressful experience.
