We can't quite match 5 years but our two bedroomed apartment should have been completed in July 2005, so we are 2 years overdue. We are awaiting the LFO but we don't intend to complete as our personal circumstance have changed dramatically in the last two years.Our independant lawyer based in London has come up against a "brick wall" with regard to a refund of monies .  Both the agent and the developer are refusing to communicate with our lawyer and we have already paid over £2000  for seemingly little return. It's a problem to decide where we go from here . At the current rate of expenditure it will cost a small fortune to take this one to court and even then if the court rules in our favour we still have to rely on someone (agent or developer) to pay up.

Any advice the best way to proceed would be much apreciated.
