If you answer yes to any of the following questions we can help

  • Is Japanese Knotweed encroaching from neighbouring land? If so, you may have a private nuisance claim against the neighbouring landowner.
  • Have you purchased a property affected by Japanese Knotweed within the last 6 years and were not informed about it by the seller? If so, you may have a legal claim against them for breach of contract and misrepresentation.
  • Did the surveyor you instructed to complete the pre purchase survey failed to identify it? If so, you may have a professional negligence claim to pursue against the surveyor

What’s the fuss around knotweed?

In accordance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 it is an offence to allow Japanese knotweed to grow in the wild.

The value of your property could also be diminished by up to 10% if it is affected by Japanese knotweed.

It may cost thousands of pounds to eradicate knotweed.

Most mortgage lenders will refuse to grant mortgages on properties that are affected by Japanese knotweed and many prospective buyers are reluctant to purchase properties affected by it.
