About Us

We are different by design…

Formed in 1997, JB Leitch enjoys a unique position and national reach in the marketplace. Our niche specialism and strength are gained through a continued focus on delivering the best possible property management litigation, real estate and legal services to clients including property managers, institutional landlords and asset managers.

Because we focus on just one aspect of legal practice, our experience in the field is unmatched. Our firm now benefits from the largest team of property management and leasehold legal specialists in the country, assisted by a well-trained and knowledgeable legal support team of client managers and service specific administrators.

Our understanding of the property management industry ensures that clients can trust our knowledge, expertise and depth of service in delivering rapid and effective results.

We aim to set the standard…

Our clients have the assurance that working with JB Leitch equates to the very highest professional and operational standards. We hold Tier 3 status in the Legal 500 – placing us alongside some of the largest names in the legal sector. Our rigorous approach to information management and security are reflected in our ISO 27001 accreditation and our commitment to staff development and wellbeing have qualified us for IIP Silver certification as well as recently an award for Training Provider of the Year which recognised our commitment to Apprenticeships.

We also believe in sharing knowledge and best practice as well as leading legal advice, with clients benefitting from official CPD accreditation and certification provided as part of our free courses on our exclusive online learning platform, JBL Learn.

During our long relationship, JB Leitch has become part of our core team. Their Landlord and Tenant advice is authoritative and clear, and they understand our sector inside out. Their credit control service is highly effective, but also sensitive to the wider relationship we have with our leaseholders

We have worked with JB Leitch for many years now. Their knowledge surrounding the legalities and technicalities of Service Charge collection is excellent and their approach is always helpful and professional.

During this particularly challenging time they continue to provide invaluable support by remaining easily contactable, sending regular reports and offering solutions to any problems that may arise.

They continue to provide invaluable support to our business, operating in many ways as a seamless extension to our in-house legal team.

Over the last five years we have built a solid relationship with JB Leitch, they have provided us with a remarkable ground rent collection service for our freehold property portfolio on criteria and non-criteria debts. They provide a fast, effective recovery of our stand alone Ground Rent and also through their bolt-on Service Charge recovery by liaising with multiple managing agents on our behalf.

I would highly recommend JB Leitch although part of me would like to keep them a secret to ensure we have the advantage over competitors. They have increased my knowledge of the legal processes as well as the preparation required to avoid any issues from the beginning.
Dave Poppleton - Director - Inspired Property Management
JB Leitch are simply excellent. It is good to know that we are dealing with a market leading firm who provide superb quality up-to-date advice. When we give JB Leitch an instruction, whether a routine enfranchisement or a complex leasehold query they always deliver. They are highly responsive, professional and have a great team. A pleasure to do business with!
