Another sucessful conclusion by MJ with Overseas Landlord and Tenant Negotiation:

Advised an overseas landowner in relation to two substantial agricultural holdings on an estate in the United Kingdom where a sub-tenant asserted proprietary rights and refused to vacate the premises. Following strategic assessment of litigation risk, cost exposure, and timing implications, I advised my client against immediate legal proceedings and instead pursued a negotiated resolution. I was instructed to engage directly with the sub-tenant and conducted without-prejudice negotiations aimed at securing a full surrender of any claimed rights whilst keeping the client and their retained legal team appraised of progress.

I successfully negotiated a comprehensive settlement under which:
- The sub-tenant formally surrendered all claimed proprietary and occupational rights;
- Vacant possession was delivered in full;
- The entire farm and associated yard was cleared to a high standard; and
- The total settlement cost was significantly lower than the projected legal fees and enforcement costs associated with contested eviction proceedings.

The matter was resolved swiftly, commercially, and without recourse to court action, thereby protecting the client’s asset value and avoiding protracted disruption to agricultural operations and the sale of part of the estate.

Apologies for the lack of updates recently, I've been working out of my normal patch up in Cumbria for a while with very little phone signal, a lot of rain and some stunning scenery!

Full Team Day for Sale:
- 3rd October, 2025
- 150 – 400 bird day depending on team requirements
- Full Hospitality
- Up to 10 guns
- Video here: https://youtu.be/XEM3FRvgy2c?si=LfbmDN6thsw7PKqS
- £65 per bird plus VAT

Set on the Wiltshire / Oxfordshire border and comprising varying topography from open download fields to tree lined valleys and ravines, this estate offers superb high and testing pheasant and partridge shooting over many varied drives designed to make the day as enjoyable and challenging as possible. Historically this shoot has been a well-kept secret on the 10,000 acre estate and it is only this season that the estate has offered a small number of days to let. The day can happily be tailored to individual team requirements by the keeper Dan.

The team will meet in the superb timber framed shoot lodge in the farmyard and be treated to tea, coffee and breakfast rolls on arrival before leaving for the first of the five drives. After the first traditional elevenses will be served in the field before travelling on to the next two drives.
After a challenging morning of shooting, a full shoot lunch and drinks will be provided in the shoot lodge with some superb dishes available to choose from on the menu (and dietary requirements can be catered for happily).

Once everyone is suitably fed, the guns will travel to the last two drives of the day before returning to the shoot lodge for a post-shoot drink.

Loaders and local accommodation can be arranged in advance if required.

If you would like further information or to book the day, please contact me on 0782 606 7939 or email [email protected].
