Save the Date: Wilberforce celebrates the first 100 years of the Law of Property Act 1925

Thursday 1 May 2025
12.30pm - 6pm, followed by drinks and canapés,
The View at The Royal College of Surgeons

Wilberforce Chambers is delighted to announce a celebration of the first 100 years of the Law of Property Act 1925. Please save the date in your diaries and see below for further details.

A century after the legislation was passed, the Act remains of vital importance to today’s property lawyers. In an exciting programme of high-quality sessions, members of Wilberforce’s Property Team will discuss a range of topics such as:

  • When is time of the essence and when is it not? An analysis of Section 41 and its consequences
  • Can you EVER get your deposit back? Section 49, deposits, forfeiture and relief
  • With great power must also come great responsibility: the scope of mortgagees’ powers under Section 104.

The event will shed new light on parts of the Act and cover less well-trodden ground as well as equip attendees with practical advice and give everyone a chance to catch up with each other over some superb food and drink by Searcys.

If you have any questions about this event, please contact seminars@wilberforce.co.uk.
