Report
Boundary Dispute. The boundary was moved without consultation and a new fence line constructed by the adjacent property owner. The detailed evidence of the real boundary made it relatively easy to prove the error. Any layman could read the approved planning application from some 20 plus years prior. The difficulty was in dealing with the obstinacy of the offending party who provided no evidence but continued to be obstructive and used a solicitor that seemed unwilling to read the evidence to an obvious conclusion. Ben Pearson carefully and diplomatically presented information step by step and got agreement on each point.
This led to an agreement to adhere to the joint appointment of a Boundary Surveyor and to adhere to the surveys conclusions. Once the Boundary Survey report had been received the matter was resolved and the fence put back to the original boundary lines.

This is the second time that we have used Peacock & Co and again they gave excellent service. James completed the work on a new will promptly and he was extremely clear, pleasant and professional in all his dealings with us. in Reception staff also were friendly and helpful and that makes such a difference. Thank you!

I have used the services of Peacocks in a business capacity on 3 occasions and each time they have listened, understood and given excellent advice. I have engaged Ben, Daniel and Clare in different capacities and all three have been brilliant. Mostly I recommend Peacocks because I like the way they responded to me as a client, friendly and approachable.

I have used many solicitors over my 46 years of business, but Charles Hylton-Potts of Peacock is by far the best. He always refers back, which is unusual in most practices, is very efficient and provides the best service I have ever seen. He is also very personable

I have been a client of Peacock and Co in Wimbledon for quite a few years now and I have dealt with a number of the solicitors working there. I have always found them professional, accurate and fair in their dealings so that I can wholeheartedly recommend them.

My family have used Peacock & Co Solicitors for many years and they have recently acted as my solicitor for the sale of my property. The buyers, and their solicitor, were not the easiest to work with, but Peacock & Co worked incredibly hard on all aspects of the sale and were very communicative and professional throughout. I will definitely continue to use them well into the future. Thank you Amie and Keely!
