Two Falcon Chambers barristers contribute to Party Wall Book of articles
The Party Wall etc Act 1996 (“the Act”) provides a self-contained code for dealing with Party Wall disputes.
The Act, which runs to some twenty-two sections, has proved to be a succinct and effective piece of legislation at resolving disputes before they even reach the stage of litigation.
Inevitably, some cases do end up in Court and can be fought over a variety of matters. Cecily and Edward were recently opposing counsel in one such case involving concrete overspill, and this required a closer look at the nature of concrete overspill, its legal status, parties’ remedies where concrete overspill is encountered, and the practical considerations for those on either side of such a dispute. Once the case had concluded, they thought it was high time for an article on this deceptively beguiling topic.
Their article is the ninth article in the book and can be found at page 107.
