With offices in rural Somerset and Dorset, we have a good understanding of countryside issues as well as expertise in this specialist area of law.

We keep up with the continuing tightening of freedoms enjoyed by landowners and, as a result, can advise on sales of farmland, auctions, FBTs and transfers of going concerns.

We frequently represent claimants and defendants in contentious issues. We also often receive instructions on equestrian concerns, draw up livery agreements and advise on health and safety matters for shows and events, as well as on livestock or stud claims.

We can advise on...

Agricultural tenancies and succession issues

Reforms to the 1995 Agricultural Tenancies Act

Rights of way

Boundary disputes
