Recommendation for Solicitor with leasehold/freehold knowledge

Recommended Posts

Hi me and my neighbour are looking to buy our freehold from the freeholder and want to know our rights and understand the legal ins and outs

Does anyone have recommendations in the ED/Peckham area of a good solicitor who knows their way around all of this?


TIA

Hi there.


You don’t need a local solicitor by the way. Bishop and Sewel based in Russell Square, did our recent freehold enfranchisement ( as I now know it’s called) and they were super helpful and patient in explaining what is actually a very complex process. We never met in person. Was all done on the phone and email.


Happy to chat you through our experience if that helps and introduce to the solicitor we used. Just dm me to swap phone numbers. .


All the best.

    • Some suggestions for mandatory action might include:- 1. Permit retailers to display facial images on the premises  of previous offenders at their local store. 2. Sound an alert and display images on screens inside the store when the FR flags up a person entering who is on the national database of shoplifters. 3. Physically bar recognised shoplifters from the premises. Should they attempt to force entry then charges should be pressed under aggravated trespass, which  a criminal offence under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. 4. Change the law to allow retailers to have enhanced powers of citizens arrest. What would you suggest? The UK seems to have the most lenient policy towards shoplifting , probably because of other demands on the police force. On the plus side, they may have more time for it now that non-crime hate incidents will no longer be investigated. Other countries, such as the USA have much more sever punishment as does Singapore where repeat offenders or aggravated cases can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison, a fine, or both.
    • No, we'd have to be in a police state.  You'd have to get this made law.  Unless it is in Reform's policies.  I'll check. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/live-facial-recognition-technology-to-catch-high-harm-offenders Not government policy
    • There is a sign outside what was Megan's saying that whatever is replacing it will have an "all day concept." What the (expletive deleted) is an "all day concept", and how does it differ from being open all day? For (expletive deleted)'s sake 🙄
