The body of law concerning matters which affect relations between neighbours is wide-ranging and often complex. Now in its 5th edition, Neighbours and the Law is the only publication so comprehensively to draw together all of this information in one volume. The 5th edition has been fully updated to take account of numerous developments in the law including the Housing Act 2004, the Clean Neighbourhoods & Environment Act 2005, the Planning Act 2008, amendments to the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 and all relevant new case law. Neighbours and the Law is a quick and convenient reference work for all solicitors, barristers, surveyors and other professionals advising on neighbour disputes, as well as for local authority legal and other departments who may be called upon to give advice to members of the public or to take regulatory action in connection with such a dispute.
