Frequently asked questions

Some of the most common forms of neighbour disputes include; noise complaints, parking disputes, boundary disputes, shared facility disputes, and disputes over trees and hedges.

It is a legal requirement to declare if you have an ongoing or past dispute with a neighbour. If you fail to declare when selling your house, the buyer could take legal action against you for misrepresentation. Generally, you must declare any dispute that resulted in written correspondence.  

Mediation is a confidential process where an impartial professional helps both sides of a neighbour dispute to come to an agreement. Both neighbours will have to agree to the mediation service.

A solicitor may be able to contact the neighbour on your behalf and arrange mediation. If the dispute remains unresolved and needs to be taken to court, they will advise on the best options available to you.  

Look and compare solicitors in your area to begin mediation. It is also worth considering factors such as location, reviews, reputation, and cost of a firm before making your decision.
