At Buckles, we understand the complexities and potential problems that can arise when running a farming business. We can assist with any disputes that arise throughout the course of your agricultural or farming business, including those involving complex property issues, commercial arrangements, or estate planning.
Some of the agricultural disputes that our solicitors have previously dealt with include (but are not limited to):
- Agricultural tenancy disputes
- Agricultural land boundary disputes between neighbouring properties
- Supply and contract disputes
- Proprietary estoppel claims
- Farming inheritance disputes
- Other farming family disputes
- Damage caused by or to livestock
- Trespass and nuisance claims
- Professional negligence
Our solicitors recommend starting with the least confrontational approach to resolving agricultural disputes, helping you avoid unnecessary stress, delays and legal costs. However, if informal or mediated solutions aren’t possible or appropriate, our solicitors are prepared to investigate every aspect of your case and build a strong body of evidence to support you in court.
Given that agricultural disputes will often involve members of the same family, our experienced team understands that an extra level of sensitivity may be required when seeking to resolve these issues. We will address the consequences for the individuals involved and the impact on the wider business. Where necessary, our Dispute Resolution team will work with other teams within Buckles such as Contentious Probate, Private Client and Family Law to achieve the best possible outcome for you and your farm.
