Katie Smith

Solicitor, Real Estate Disputes


Why choose me

Working within real estate dispute resolution provides a huge amount of variety – no two cases are the same and I enjoy the challenge of applying my expertise to new situations. Ultimately this approach allows me to find bespoke solutions which meet my clients’ needs.

Property-related disputes can be stressful and uncertain, so I work to ensure I provide personalised guidance throughout the process. To do this, I assess the risk profile of a client early in the process and consider the commercial background every step of the way while keeping them informed of progress at every opportunity.

I’ve worked for a range of clients including freeholders, leaseholders, landlords, tenants and businesses.

Outside work, I enjoy seeing friends, family and travelling to new places at the weekend.

Questions my clients ask me

‘Success’ is evaluated differently for each client. I can offer advice on the different options available and help evaluate the risk, cost and commercial goals to reach a successful outcome.

There are multiple options to recover possession of your property, but there are also legal and procedural bars you should consider too. We can advise you on the legal process and likely costs of regaining possession of your property, which could involve going to court.

We’ll offer a fee estimate at the outset and keep you appraised of any changes throughout the process.
