Neighbor disputes are a common occurrence in the UK, with over 150,000 cases reported annually. These disputes often escalate to legal action, with 30% of cases ending up in court. The cost of legal fees for neighbor disputes can range from £2,000 to £5,000, making it a costly and time-consuming process for all parties involved.
However, there is a lack of professionals trained in conflict resolution in the UK, with less than 5,000 individuals currently equipped to handle these disputes effectively.
