A question about : advice on best solicitor for evicting?

not sure if its even classed as evicting. anyway assuming I get LOA im gonna need a solicitor to get my Dads place back from the step brother.

any ideas on which companies are best at this sort of thing? online or should I try local (bearing in mind I live in the !!!! end of no where).

Best answers:

  • Don't count your chickens too early. You need to get the LOA and satisfy the Land Registry to register your ownership. From what has been said previously that might be a pipe dream. Once you have done that you can think about obtaining possession. Then you can apply for a High Court order for possession.
  • I hope you have got a lot of time and a lot of money. This sort of thing can take years.
  • ok let me get this straight:
    if there is no will and a non blood relative who has access to documents keys etc. can essentially just move into a persons home, sell items within it, sell cars, and empty bank accounts. all without consequence? and if a next of kin comes along to sort it out they've goto spend loads on legal fees trying to drag him out of a house he technically shouldn't be in?
  • I'm afraid all your questions & actions have been for nothing. Your stepbrother WOODYWOOD has surfaced (on this MSE forum I mean ), your Dad left him everything, with a Will.
  • going back to the whole LOA thing. I sent him a letter nearly 2 weeks ago, which he hasn't replied to. I then sent one recorded delivery last Wednesday which is waiting for him to pick up from the post office, as he was presumably out when the postman came knocking. does it strike you a bit strange that if he has got a will he hasn't at least tried waving it under my nose, let alone probated it.
