For more than a year, Jonathan Seitler QC has been explaining the basics of property law, area by area, for EG readers in his monthly series of Potted Guide articles.
Starting this month, he will be confined by the written page no longer, as an accompanying podcast will get to the nuts and bolts of key practice areas in a whole different way. It’s something we just had to call the Podded Guide.
Beginning with the latest topic, Seitler takes what could at first glance appear to be a dry topic – the release of guarantors from leases under what is known as the rule in Holme v Brunskill – and makes it come alive, explaining in a light-hearted yet authoritative way just how important it is that landlords, tenants and their advisers are aware of its implications.
To find out how the rule can mean very bad news for landlords, and champagne times for guarantors, listen to the very first Podded Guide.
