about the book

 

Neighbour disputes - book cover

Neighbour Disputes: A Concise Guide to the Law and Practice provides starting points for those seeking to resolve disputes between neighbours at war with each other – whether it be about noise, overhanging branches, the position of a fence, or some other irritation that has sparked neighbour rage. It draws together the relevant strands of the law and provides an insight into some of the many powers of the local authorities which may be invoked to bring to an end the behaviour complained of. The importance of seeking to settle a dispute without having to resort to litigation is a theme running through the book, as is the ever-vexing question of costs.

 

Co- written by our Amanda Morris and Donald Agnew, both partners at Blake Lapthorn with many years’ experience of dealing with such disputes, it contains practical hints to hasten resolving difficulties, while recognising the desirability of restoring harmony between the disputing parties. The book is published by Callow Publishing.

 

who should read it

 

Neighbour Disputes: A Concise Guide to the Law and Practice proves a valuable first port of call for busy lawyers, as well as a useful reference for officers of local authorities, mediators and the many others who may be called upon to help solve a dispute between neighbours. It is also hoped that it is sufficiently readable and jargon-free to enable the interested non-lawyer to derive some benefit from it.
