Party Wall Disputes

At Simon Levy, our damage experts can assist you with obtaining a successful claim.

Planning Matters

On the other hand, perhaps you’d like to oppose planning permission that is being sought for an area close to your property. At Simon Levy Associates, we can provide you with guidance and recommendations for your chosen area, whether it’s getting your own planning request approved or disputing another’s request.


Construction Disputes

Arguments between a construction team and their customers can be messy and complicated. Whether over the quality of the work or the costs, sometimes the dispute can get out of hand, becoming difficult to resolve alone. Thankfully, our experts at Simon Levy can help you reach an agreement with our construction dispute service.


Dilapidation

As a tenant, it’s important to ensure that you are not financially responsible for any existing damage in your rented property, particularly if it wasn’t caused by you. A dilapidation report can be carried out to list any repairs that may be required to the property, keeping both tenant and landlord aware of the existing damage. Our team can expertly carry out a survey, supported by both photographic and written evidence.
