What do we recommend when submitting a claim?
For each boundary and neighbour dispute claim, we strongly recommend the following to put you in the best possible position should the case need to be settled in court:
Do not destroy any deeds
Photograph your property and boundary from the outset and again if the boundary ever alters. Keep all photographs and ensure they are dated
Keep any correspondence
If you ever modify a boundary, consider whether your mortgage provider’s consent is required
Obtain a surveyor’s report.
How do you determine the boundary?
The deeds to the property, which you will have received when you purchased the property, along with any Land Registry records, may give details of boundaries. Our solicitors in Doncaster and Sheffield can also arrange for an expert to take measurements and photos of where the boundaries of your property are.

I would highly recommend Mr Robert Clarke, of Taylor Bracewell Solicitors, to anyone who finds themselves needing legal representation for a medical negligence case. His legal expertise, professionalism and understanding is excellent and has made the further trauma of having to go through a legal case more bearable by knowing I was being represented by such a capable and professional solicitor as Mr Clarke.

I could not have wished for more from a legal firm. The facts surrounding my case were quickly assessed and the advice I received led to a successful conclusion. Emma Cornell was always very approachable and reassuring in all my dealings with the firm. Highly recommend!
