Forfeiture Claim Experts

Simon Burn Solicitors are a specialist litigation solicitors practice and have particular expertise in forfeiture claims for both residential and commercial landlords. We have a dedicated team of qualified solicitors to advise and represent landlords and managing agents in pursuing the ultimate sanction against delinquent tenants; forfeiture of their lease.

It is becoming all too common to find tenants breaching covenants in the current economic climate causing landlords to be significantly out of pocket. These breaches often relate to non-payment of rent, service charges and other sums due under the Lease. A tenant's disregard of its obligations under a Lease (whether in respect of payments or other obligations) is not only a frustration to the landlord but also adversely affects the overall management of the leasehold estate. We appreciate forfeiture is the last resort for many landlords but is often a necessary step in order to tackle troublesome tenants.

We have experience in taking forfeiture actions for landlords in all parts of England and Wales. We act for a variety of landlords from commercial industrial clients and large block estates to smaller private properties. What we provide to all our clients is an assertive professional approach directed at achieving the outcomes our landlord clients require.
