Specialists in TOLATA disputes
TOLATA, an abbreviation of the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996, regulates disputes about property ownership and the rights of people with an interest in land.
TOLATA disputes frequently involve properties that are owned or occupied by multiple parties. This includes cohabiting couples, extended families, and business partners.
The Act gives judges wide-ranging powers to determine property ownership, or the right to occupy property. Courts can also order the sale of property.
