From property records to a legal decision
Review the lease, actual access, notices and evidence of restricted use together.
Useful records include the acquisition document, current property information and material concerning the disputed act. Include the draft agreement or written refusal where relevant. Technical condition and legal status are separate checks whose findings should be considered together.
Planning the next steps
After reviewing the records, we will explain what is established, what is missing and the next document needed. Scope and fees will be agreed. Existing submissions and decisions will be taken into account so further work remains consistent.
Before work begins
What should my first message include?
Describe the event, name the document and mention any relevant date. We will then clarify the task and required records.
When will the fee be agreed?
After clarifying the review, deliverable and any continuing involvement. The fee will be agreed before work starts.
Are photographs of documents enough?
Legible copies of all pages are useful for an initial review. The procedure will determine whether originals or certified copies are needed.
