Why we’re running a FREE Legal Leasehold Surgery

Leases can be so confusing.

You’d be surprised if I told you how so many people don’t understand how a lease works. The language and definitions can be confusing, the legal jargon sometimes reads like double dutch and lots of people just don’t get it.

It’s a problem really as we always say that the lease is king - it’s like a rule book that you need to abide by.

That’s where we come in.

The joy of working with a professional block management company is that we can take all the jargon and legal language and translate it into something everyone can understand, and we work in the background so you don’t have to worry about it.

Our job is to make your experience as a leaseholder simple and easier, we take the stress and the worry away.

We get involved with Small Business Saturday every year, and our Managing Director Jodie was named as one of the Small Business 100 in 2020 and wanted to find more ways of giving back to her community.

So we had this great idea to offer a FREE 30 minute appointment to anyone who has a leasehold of legal questions relating to property.

We have arranged to team up with local solicitor Andrew Turner who is a partner at Hughes Paddison a firm of solicitors in Cheltenham.

Andrew is a key member, Director and solicitor within the Litigation Department at Hughes Paddison. He has a wealth of experience in disputes relating to commercial, residential and agricultural property, as well as in disputes arising in the broader litigation field.

He’s a member of the Property Litigation Association, and the Association of Contentious Trust and Probate Specialists, and has considerable experience of dealing with landlord and tenant disputes, 1954 Act lease renewals, dilapidations, possession claims, and the enforcement of covenants. Within the field of contentious probate and trusts, he regularly advises clients in respect of TOLATA applications and Inheritance Act claims.

Andrew has managed cases up to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court. He also advises clients in relation to proceedings in the Property Tribunals.

So we know you’ll be in safe hands! When else would you get the opportunity for FREE legal advice?

We fully support the aim of the Small Business Saturday campaign as it promotes the ethos of supporting independent small businesses, from retailers to local suppliers. Now, as one of the 2020 cohort of the Small Biz 100, Jodie and Andrew will offer a morning to assist the general public with any issues or questions they may have regarding property management and property law.

We think Small Business Saturday UK is a great grassroots, non-commercial campaign, which celebrates small business success and encourages consumers to 'shop local' and to support businesses in their communities, so our FREE Leasehold and Legal Surgery is a great fit.

We’re thrilled we the local coverage we have had and hope to make it a regular event in 2022.
