Our Agricultural Land Estate Expertise
The agriculture law team here at Lanyon Bowdler has years of experience in dealing with a wide variety of legal issues including farmland disputes, selling farmland and change of use of agricultural land. Indeed, many of the team are from a farming background themselves, so we understand how the industry works.
We offer a full range of agricultural land legal services for rural landowners or those wishing to dispose of or acquire agricultural land.
As solicitors for farmland purchases, we are experts in making sure your agricultural conveyancing runs smoothly.
Purchasing agricultural land can be fraught with issues if not handled correctly. From due diligence involving rights of way to future planning permission of the farmland, our experts are sticklers for details.
Our agricultural land legal team specialise in both buying and selling farmland so you can rest assured we know our onions.
Selling agricultural land or farmland? Then we can help.
It’s great news having a prospective buyer, however, this is a critical time to make sure all your ducks are in a row so we maximise the value of your land.
We do lots of work here so your buyer is fully aware of the potential and so you’ll be selling your agricultural land for the best possible price.
We have handled a number of renewable energy projects for landowners and can advise you accordingly, whether it be to develop wind power, hydro-power or solar power schemes on your agricultural land.
The Government and the public are sympathetic to farmland change of use for this purpose, so your project can often be met with a positive reception.
What’s more, you can often find partners in the renewable energy sector, who are keen to fund part or all of the capital expenditure required, with you then either taking a share or simply leasing the land back to them for a fixed period.
It’s important here to have a great contract in place, so call our agricultural land team to discuss your options.
When it comes to farm land disputes, possibly due to the type of usage or even farm boundary issues, there can be nothing more worrying.
Once the issues arise they seldom go away on their own and can escalate quite quickly. Having a good law firm behind you is crucial for a successful outcome when it comes to farmland disputes.
Sometimes a strong shot across their bows in the form of a legal letter will suffice. However, sometimes a broader case needs to be prepared and that’s where agricultural land solicitors and experts in agricultural law can really help.
You don’t have to face it on your own.
Call our agricultural law solicitors today. We thoroughly understand your farming business.
Our agricultural landlords and tenants’ teams can advise you on all sorts of issues from rent collection enforcement to general disputes. We can also draw up tenancy/landlord agreements so you are protected whichever side of the farm fence you are on.
