Tahlia Woollatt

Partner, Real Estate Disputes


Why choose me

I have always had a keen interest in land and property as it’s a tangible asset with real value and I love being a litigator where logical thinking, a clear strategy and the art of negotiation are key.  The law relating to  property is  often complex and is ever-changing – which means it’s always interesting. As a lawyer who has specialised in property disputes for over 18 years, I enjoy using my specialist knowledge to help my clients make informed choices about their most important assets.

I give my clients honest, commercial and pragmatic advice designed to help them make the best decisions and achieve their commercial or strategic objectives. Whilst litigation is not for the faint hearted and should only be undertaken on an informed basis, I’m never afraid to adopt a robust approach if that’s what is required and will always fight my client’s corner.

I act for landlords, occupiers, developers and landowners along with corporate clients and owner-managed businesses and individuals. I advise across a range of areas including commercial landlord and tenant matters, disputes concerning property rights or restrictions, development matters and negligence claims.

Outside of work, my passions include travelling, snowboarding, good food, good books and my family.

Questions my clients ask me

I will always try to be as clear with clients as possible at the outset of the matter about the prospects of success. My specialist knowledge and years of experience help me to form a view of a case’s merits.

Litigation is unpredictable, takes time and effort and can incur significant costs – some of which will be unrecoverable. The best commercial outcome is sometimes achieved by adopting alternative strategies. Taking steps to settle – such as making a well-placed offer – can therefore be the best strategic approach and can also provide costs protection.

Litigation is not straightforward and clients will need to be responsive to how events unfold and the position taken by the other side. While initial estimates can be given based on experience, they will need to be continually re-evaluated and discussed throughout the matter so that a cost/benefit analysis can be regularly undertaken by clients.

Tahlia is acting for us in relation to a £7 million claim. She is guiding us through the litigation process brilliantly and is adept, well-connected and an excellent communicator.

The claim is technically complex, and Tahlia’s immense knowledge and experience makes navigating the difficult landscape of litigation much easier.

She has been great at helping us navigate some significant challenges that have arisen, is organised and keeps a keen eye on costs.

Client Claim in the Technology and Construction court

From our first telephone call, Tahlia was very professional and helpful, giving us sound legal advice.

Throughout the process, Tahlia was not only proactive, efficient and precise but she patiently took the time to explain in plain English the reasoning of the process. All in all, she provided us with excellent legal services and I would thoroughly recommend her.
