	Other services apart from architecture that we are able to provide here at Arthurell & Kirkland are:
	Party Wall matters & Neighbourly work
	The Party Wall etc Act 1996 which came in to force in 1997 covers England and Wales, and imposes duties on building owners wishing to carry out works on or close to party walls to protect both them and the adjoining owners. Arthurell and Kirkland have considerable experience in both residential and commercial situations, and have been involved in a wide variety of Party Wall cases including appointments from both building and adjoining owners. We can advise clients on the implications of their projects under The Act and of their rights and obligations. Where necessary we will serve the relevant Party Wall notices, prepare and agree condition schedules, and negotiate an Award for the building works to progress without delays. We also advise and negotiate on Neighbourly issues associated with building developments, acting either on behalf of the developer or the neighbouring owner affected by the works. If you require more detailed information on this service, please contact: Melville Kirkland.
