Leasehold Property law. Personally delivered.
Leasehold Property law. Personally delivered.
Arcadia Law is a specialist team of London property solicitors advising leaseholders, freeholders, landlords and property owners on lease extensions, collective enfranchisement, landlord and tenant matters, conveyancing and related property work. We bring rigorous legal analysis, pragmatic commercial judgement and a clear focus on the outcome that matters to each client.
Years’ combined experience in leasehold enfranchisement and landlord and tenant matters
Property law is about more than documents and deadlines. It affects value, control, timing and future plans.
Good legal advice should therefore do more than explain the law: it should give you a clear view of the position, the choices available and the route forward.
Arcadia Law advises on leasehold reform, landlord and tenant law, residential and commercial conveyancing, and independent legal advice. Our work includes lease extensions, collective enfranchisement and freehold acquisitions, lease variations, property sales and purchases, and the legal issues involved in owning or managing a building.
Our service is personal, but deliberately collaborative. Every instruction is overseen by an experienced solicitor and supported by a knowledgeable legal team. Work is allocated according to its complexity, allowing routine and procedural elements to be handled efficiently while strategy, key advice and important decisions remain subject to senior oversight.
That is what personally delivered means to us: careful attention, clear communication and a team that understands both the legal detail and the property behind it.
Protecting, acquiring, selling and managing property often depends on getting the legal detail right. Our focused practice brings together specialist advice across leasehold and wider property matters.
01
Statutory and voluntary lease extensions for leaseholders and freeholders, from initial strategy and service of notice through to completion and registration.
02
Advice for groups of leaseholders acquiring the freehold of their building, and for freeholders responding to collective claims.
03
Careful legal support for residential and commercial property sales and transfers, and for purchases where no mortgage lender is involved.
04
Practical advice for private and institutional landlords, housing associations, resident management companies and managing agents on leases, consents, building management and landlord and tenant obligations.
05
Independent advice for borrowers, guarantors and others who need to understand and sign finance, security or related legal documents.
06
Clear guidance on lease terms, rights, obligations and issues affecting the ownership, use or management of leasehold property.
Leasehold and property matters are rarely technical exercises alone. They affect value, cost, timing, control and wider plans. Our advice is shaped by that context.
Leasehold enfranchisement and landlord and tenant law sit at the centre of our practice. Across the team, we bring more than 50 years of combined experience to lease extensions, freehold acquisitions and complex leasehold matters.
We identify the issues that matter, assess risk proportionately and consider value, cost and timing alongside the legal position. The strategy remains directed towards the strongest practical and commercial outcome available in the circumstances.
Experienced solicitors oversee every matter, supported by paralegals who undertake appropriate routine and procedural work. This team structure combines senior legal judgement with efficient day-to-day progress.
Arcadia Law is a member of the Association of Leasehold Enfranchisement Practitioners (ALEP) and is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
Arcadia’s solicitors and paralegals work together, sharing knowledge and allocating each stage of a matter according to expertise and complexity.
Senior solicitors retain oversight of the matter and the decisions that shape it, while the wider team manages the detailed work needed to keep the process moving. This collaborative model gives each instruction the attention it needs while keeping the service proportionate and efficient.
Property matters do not follow a single template. The right approach depends on the lease, the parties, the building, the timetable and the client’s wider objective.

Some leasehold matters require the legal and valuation work to move in step. Arcadia Law works closely with Blakes Chartered Surveyors where clients need specialist surveying input alongside legal advice.
Together, the firms created extension.lease for clients who prefer a coordinated service for lease extensions and freehold purchases. Arcadia provides the legal advice and conveyancing; Blakes provides the valuation and negotiation expertise. Each firm remains independently regulated and responsible for its own professional work.
For freeholders served with a lease extension or collective enfranchisement claim, myfreehold provides the equivalent independent valuation and legal advice on the other side of the transaction — combining Blakes’ surveying expertise with Arcadia’s legal advice. In most cases, a freeholder’s reasonable costs are recoverable from the leaseholder making the claim.
Our clients’ feedback reflects the qualities we work to bring to every instruction: clear advice, responsiveness, careful handling and a practical understanding of what is at stake.
