Join us for our Junior Programme: Real Estate 2026 presented by Natalie Pratt, Amber Turner and Olivia Wilson on Tuesday, 7 July 2026 11:00-12:00.

Forfeiture: the requirements, risks and rewards

Forfeiture can be a useful and highly effective tool for freeholders. It can also be a concerning prospect for leaseholders. Join Natalie, Amber and Olivia as they explore the law of forfeiture, as well as strategic considerations for practitioners acting for both freeholders and leaseholders. The webinar will cover:  

• When the right to forfeit arises, including restrictions on the right in certain types of cases; 

• When waiver of the right occurs; 

• Forfeiture by proceedings or peaceable re-entry; 

• Relief from forfeiture; and 

• Wrongful forfeiture. 

Expect top tips, insight from recent cases, and discussion of when and whether this “draconian” remedy is more hassle than it’s worth.
