Lesley has been working as a litigator for more than 40 years but for the last 20 has found herself dealing with more and more property litigation work alongside her general claims.  Lesley is very happy conducting matters in the County or High Court but realises the value mediation can add to a claim if it saves her clients the stress and cost of a lengthy court battle.

Main areas of work:

• Possession and rent arrears claims (both residential and commercial)
• Lease renewals (both residential and commercial)
• Residential lease extensions and Right to Manage applications
• Building Disputes
• Boundary disputes
• Contract disputes
• Director/shareholder disputes
• Debt recovery

Outside work Lesley loves the theatre (especially musicals) and going out for a good meal.  She is a fan of Strictly Come Dancing, as a result of which she now takes ballroom and Latin dancing lessons and does a mean cha cha cha.
