Professional negligence team rectifies defective title
Submitted by KirstyChappell on
Our professional negligence team have successfully represented co-owners in a claim for professional negligence against their former solicitors who acted for them in the acquisition of their family home.
The property consisted of a detached house with a large plot of land to the rear (including an Olympic sized manége). Several years after the purchase they discovered that they had not been registered as the owner of the plot of land to the rear as it had not been included in the contract for sale, even though then Seller had agreed that it should have been sold.
