Property Litigation Watch

Welcome to the winter edition of Property Litigation Watch. In our final issue of 2023, Laura Odlind and Laura Tweedy discuss the background to the Renters (Reform) Bill, the key changes for landlords and tenants, and the timings for implementation, while Kathryn Sowter of Pelham Lease Advisory takes her turn in our 'Speaker's Corner Q&A'. Mark Reading and Isabel Emerson-Lich provide a step-by-step guide for tenants to navigate forfeiture by re-entry, and look at how sustainability concerns can affect lease renewal provisions. We also feature a piece from this summer, authored when The Court of Appeal handed down its judgment in the Vodafone Ltd v Potting Shed Bar & Gardens Ltd (formerly Gencomp (No7) Ltd) and AP Wireless II UK Ltd.
