Leicester has a substantial professional services sector serving the city's diverse economy. The city's large property market, manufacturing sector, and two major universities generate regular conveyancing, surveying, and professional advice negligence claims.
Leicester's property market — spanning Victorian terraces, 1930s suburbs, and new city centre developments — creates a steady volume of surveyor and conveyancer negligence claims. The city's manufacturing and logistics sector generates accountancy and business advice claims. The two universities create education-related professional negligence claims.
A surveyor undertaking a HomeBuyer Report on a Leicester 1930s semi-detached property failed to identify significant subsidence cracking. The buyer faced £32,000 in unexpected underpinning costs.
A conveyancing solicitor failed to identify a lease restriction prohibiting subletting in a Leicester city centre apartment purchased as a buy-to-let investment.
Leicester's key industries include manufacturing (textiles, food processing, engineering), logistics and distribution, property and construction, and education (the two universities).
Yes. A HomeBuyer Report should identify significant visible defects, including subsidence cracking. If the cracking was visible and the surveyor failed to identify or report it, they were negligent. Your claim would be for the cost of the unexpected remedial work.
Conveyancing solicitors have a duty to identify and advise on all material restrictions in the lease. A restriction prohibiting subletting is clearly material to a buy-to-let purchase. If the solicitor missed this restriction and you suffered loss, you have a strong claim for professional negligence.
