Party Walls 2nd Ed: Law and Practice

Party Walls provides an authoritative explanation of the British law regulating the building, maintenance and repair of party walls, and sets out the process for settling disputes between parties. This new edition has been fully updated and considerably expanded to incorporate the many changes in practice and procedure since implementation of the Act, including: a wealth of new case-law under the Act such as Observatory Hill Ltd v Lantel Investments SA, and Prudential Insurance Co v Waterloo Real Estate; the impact of the CPR and the Human Rights Act; and consideration of areas of uncertainty and difficulty which have arisen in practice, together with suggestions for how they may be resolved, as well as a new chapter examining the proposals for reform.
