Property and Land Litigation

Mackrell.Solicitors’ property litigation team consists of highly qualified and experienced solicitors. It is led by supervising Partner and several Head of Property Litigation, Tony Kent.

Tony has more than 36 years’ experience in litigation, having worked primarily in complex property disputes for the last 30 years.

He has considerable knowledge of landmark changes to the sector, including the Housing Act 1988 and the substantial changes to leasehold enfranchisement and extension.

The team has worked on a variety of high-profile assignments, including cases involving surveyors as ‘owners’ under environmental protection notices, sales by councils at less than full value, assured tenancies, and difficult rent increases.
