Property Disputes

Protecting your property.

Property disputes can arise between family members, co-owners, or other parties with an interest in a property.

These matters are often complex and emotionally sensitive, particularly where relationships are involved. Clear legal guidance can help resolve disputes and protect your interests. Early action can prevent issues from escalating further.

What is a property dispute?

Property disputes may involve disagreements about ownership, use, or sale of property. Common issues include co-ownership disputes, refusal to sell, or disputes between family members over property interests.

These matters may require negotiation, mediation, or court intervention, particularly where one party seeks to force the sale of a property.

Frequently asked
questions

What happens if co-owners disagree about selling a property?

If co-owners cannot agree, one party may apply to the court for an order for sale. The court can order the property to be sold and the proceeds distributed between the parties.

Can property disputes be resolved without court?

Yes. Many disputes are resolved through negotiation or mediation, which can help preserve relationships and reduce costs.

What rights do co-owners have?

Co-owners generally have equal rights to use and enjoy the property, unless otherwise agreed. Disputes can arise where these rights are exercised differently.
