What Should I do If I have a Dispute With My Neighbour?

First and foremost, the ideal solution would be to try and solve the problem amicably, but record everything in writing and try to maintain a detailed diary of all incidents, which could be required in court proceedings at some stage.

A Solicitors Letter may be useful in letting your neighbour know you are serious, which will confirm that the next step may be court action.If a neighbour dispute is still not resolved at this stage, you may wish to consider taking your neighbour to court. However, you should be aware that this can be a costly process and could impact on the relationship with your neighbour.

You should seek legal advice before taking any action in a dispute. You can make an Online Enquiry and MTA Solicitors will contact you to discuss your situation.

Dealing with Noise Nuisance, Abusive and Threatening Neighbours

You may consider involving the Police or Local Authority, who may intervene if threats and abuse become serious, amount to harassment, become racially or religiously motivated or if there is persistent and serious noise nuisance. If your neighbours are discriminating against you in any way, you should speak to an experienced adviser who can find the best course of action to take in your circumstances.

What if I have been injured on a Neighbour’s Property?

If you have had an accident and been injured through no fault of your own on a neighbour’s property or land, you may be entitled to make a Compensation Claim for Personal Injury.

Personal Injury claims could result from accidents in your neighbour’s house, including slips, trips or falls within the property. Alternatively you could have been injured by falling roof-tiles from your neighbour’s roof or been bitten by the neighbour’s dog.

Most householders will have a house insurance policy that covers them for public liability which covers another party who is in (or near) the insured person’s home and suffers injury or death.

MTA Solicitors have specialist personal injury solicitors who will be able to ascertain whether your neighbour is insured, and expertly assess the strength of your claim for compensation. We will assist you with collection of the documentation you will need for your case and work with you to find the best possible solution to your situation.

On personal injury cases, we may be able to offer you a no-win, no fee agreement and you can make a claim without obligation.
