Our fees
A tribunal appointed manager is a less commonly known remedy for leaseholders living in a building that suffers from mismanagement.
The process involves a thorough review of the history of the management, the lease and the preparation of a water tight case against the freeholder. If we can prove negligence to the FTT, the judge can appoint a professional property manager for a number of years, completely removing the freeholder from decision making with regards to service charges, management and maintenance.
This is a formal Tribunal process, and as such you will want a solicitor who has a history of succeeding with these claims, such as Peppercorn Law's Brighton based solicitor Ricky Coleman, who has a 100% success rate with these applications.
We are able to offer a fixed fee starting at 2500 (no VAT) for the smallest buildings, but will confirm this with you once we understand the extent of the case

Ricky was absolutely superb in supporting me in a drawn out and difficult situation taking my freeholder to tribunal to appoint a manager. Ricky was wonderful to work with, explaining the process in plain English and full of empathy and understanding in my plight. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
