We ensure the correct application of legislation that directly impacts property such as the Landlord & Tenant Acts, planning law, duties under the Disability Discrimination Act and regulatory (fire safety) order. As property specialists we also keep abreast of the changes in tax and the financial regulatory framework and are happy to jointly work with your accountant.
