Explore why is it important to distinguish between a lease and a licence, and when one over the other may be the more advantageous and preferred option.

Our speakers highlight what a tenancy at will is and the leading case of Street v Mountford [1985]  which determines whether occupation is considered as a tenancy (a lease) - or a licence.

 

Speakers include:

  • Clare Harman Clark, senior counsel (knowledge) at Taylor Wessing LLP, and chair of the Property Section advisory committee
  • Nikki Bensoor, senior associate solicitor at NSS Legal Limited
