Ibraheem’s involvement can help to: (a) understand and clarify your legal position; (b) understand the site owner’s position; and (c) work towards a resolution. This article discusses three cases where Ibraheem helped his clients achieve a suitable outcome…

Case study A
A couple living in a park home in England felt intimidated and harassed by park management, which was having a big impact on their lives. They felt backed into a corner as matters reached a head and simply wanted to go back to enjoying their park home and their life.

With Ibraheem’s assistance and guidance, they were able to resolve matters with the management and site owner in a non-acrimonious way to their satisfaction. The key to this was, by understanding their legal position, they were able to work with Ibraheem who drafted correspondence to the site owner on their behalf. As a result, the site owner ensured that the residents’ feelings and legal position on the matter were taken into consideration. This led to all issues being resolved.

The outcome
‘We are pleased to advise you that our problems with the park management have now ceased. This is all good news to us and would not have been achieved without your professional expertise and, in particular, your knowledge of the park home laws. We are extremely grateful and consider it money well spent.

‘After three years of pressure and worry we can now relax and enjoy our retirement. We are quite happy to recommend you to other residents should they find themselves having similar problems. Thank you.’ Mr and Mrs A – October 2022
