Licenses.

License to Alter.

When making improvements or alterations to a leasehold property the lessee is usually required under the terms of their lease to obtain consent from the landlord via a licence to alter. Without such a licence the lessee is likely to be in breach of their lease. We act for lessees and freeholders to ensure works can proceed safely to the appropriate standard and in accordance with the lease terms. 

Appointments are often made by developers who wish to oversail neighbours’ land, and adjoining owners whose land developers wish to oversail. Oversailing can take the form of scaffold, personnel access or cranes which need to swing over adjoining properties. Depending upon the size of the instruction, we may work closely with solicitors to document an agreement and formalise permission.

Access and Oversail.

Appointments are often made by both developers and adjoining owners affected by requirements to oversail neighbours’ land.  Oversailing can take the form of scaffold, personnel access or cranes which need to swing over adjoining properties.  Depending upon the size of the instruction, we may work closely with solicitors to agree and document any agreement for access onto neighbouring land.
