SUCCESSFUL CASES
Sherry Fard successfully opposed an application for dispensation of statutory consultation obligations pursuant to S20 Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, originated by the freeholder of a large residential development located in a major U.K.city.
The Freeholders application was based upon the urgency of a large number of major works and fire safety.
Sherry (a very experienced Higher Rights Advocate) conducted her clients defence to the proceedings, argued that the application should be dismissed upon the basis of a number of irregularities in the application itself, the locus standi of the party bringing the application, and the freeholders continuous failure to comply with court orders.
The Tribunal held, dismissing the application ,that the leaseholders cannot be charged more than £250.00 per leasehold property, despite the freeholder incurring costs of the works.
The Tribunal also granted the leaseholders permission to seek costs, on the basis of the unreasonable behaviour.
Sherry is an extremely experienced and successful property litigator, who acts for both freeholders and leaseholders in property litigation cases.
