Our leasehold forms make it easier for you to advise your clients because you'll receive property information in a standard format.

It's not mandatory to use these forms.

These forms are only available through third-party suppliers.

We've provided links to the suppliers' websites and not directly to the forms, as you may need to create an account with the supplier first.

While care has been taken to make sure the forms and guidance notes are accurate, up to date and useful, the Law Society will not accept any legal liability in relation to them.

If you have any questions about forms or guidance, email us.
