Neighbour attached shed to garage wall

[Les martin]

My neighbour has built a shed between his and my garage and attached it to my wall that in the deeds states that it is inside my boundary and solely mine when confronted about it several times I have been told in no certain terms he can do what he wants. He has also taken it upon himself to attach his gate to my fence post and reposition a panel to allow him to lock the gate, he also has raised his borders above the gravel boards i installed that has now rotted the fence that yet again is inside the boundary as marked on deeds as mine. Yet again when I confront him on these issues he says it’s his side of the fence and he can do what he wants, last time we had words he said he will no longer speak to me about it and to get a solicitor and he will get one also. I do not see why I should have to go to the expense to prove what I already know is mine. I am at a loss what to do does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks

Hi LM

Welcome to LB

I think you should do exactly that providing you are 100% on your boundary rights. Because you've had several conversations on different issues and you've not done anything, so he expects the same this time, that you will do nothing. You need to find a solicitor who specializes in boundary issues (get some advice from a solicitor Pro Bono first) who can help you resolve the matter, also you shouldn't be out of pocket for doing so, if you win, your neighbour will have to pay your costs.

Almost an identical situation, in terms of, 'he will no longer speak to me about it and to get a solicitor and he will get one also'.

Unfortunately, if you wish to assert your rights you may well have to spend money doing so.

Do you have legal expenses insurance cover?

Please check you have legal expenses cover on your buildings insurance, this should cover the cost of your dispute.

Try and take photographic evidence of what he has done and send them into your buildings insurance people.

He is NOT allowed to attach things without your permission.

If he has caused any damage he would be liable for that.

We have a neighbour who has also been problematic.
