Leasehold Enfranchisement Solicitors
Working toward a seamless, successful leasehold claim
With a strong working experience of this niche legal area, Giles Wilson can help you and other leaseholders purchase the freehold of your residential building, in certain circumstances.
Collective Enfranchisement is the legal right of long leaseholders to act together to purchase the freehold of their building, provided that certain criteria are met. The collective group of leaseholders would then acquire the freehold of their building and would collectively become the Landlord under their respective leases.
The process requires an in-depth knowledge of the statutory provisions governing the rights of long leaseholders. It is essential that you seek professional advice as soon as possible before starting the claim, so that the process is followed correctly. This will often involve a surveyor to advise on matters of the premium and potential settlement options.
With experience acting for a range of commercial property leaseholders and freeholders, our dedicated Collective Enfranchisement solicitors can help you prepare your claim.

Conveyancing
The Act brought in a form of protection to the leasehold flat by a Certificate Scheme but unless these certificates are granted at the right time, and in the right way, the protection can be lost. It is crucial that the correct Certificates are in place if you want to sell your leasehold flat, or if you wish to buy one.
