  • My lawyers (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?

They have just come back saying they'll knock £5k off if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm unsure if I should take them up on the offer
  • I'm looking for some help with regard to extending the lease on my flat. The intention is to do this next autumn as we need to move then.

Can you recommend a good lawyers with expertise in lease extensions. Ideally nearby in St Mellons?
