My dad has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Swanscombe. House split into three apartments. He has a lease, which has around 59 yrs outstanding. Does he have to do the lease extension at the same time with the other tenants, or could he extend the lease on his own?

I am the freeholder of a property in Swanscombe and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has given a figure of £8,000, but has upped this by £2,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has suggested a much higher figure. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I handle the matter myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to incur?
