Details

This new edition offers a clear, authoritative and comprehensive account of the law relating to party walls and its application in practice. Nicholas Isaac KC examines the statutory framework and the developing case law, providing detailed guidance on procedure and practical implementation.

Although written primarily for the benefit of surveyors and solicitors, the book is also sufficiently accessible to inform anyone serving or receiving a notice under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, as well as those navigating the procedures that follow from such notices.

The third edition reflects recent developments and continues to serve as an essential reference work in this specialist field.
