Tenancy Agreements
Deposit Protection and Dispute Resolution
Evictions and Possession Proceedings
We offer guidance on lawful eviction procedures, including Section 8 and Section 21 notices, ensuring compliance with current legislation and protecting landlords from costly legal missteps. For tenants facing eviction, we provide advice on challenging unlawful evictions and can represent you in court if required. Our goal is to help all parties achieve the best resolution with minimal stress and disruption.
Rent Arrears Recovery
Managing rent arrears is a common challenge for landlords. We assist in recovering unpaid rent, starting with negotiations to achieve voluntary payments and progressing to formal legal action if necessary. Our team advises landlords on their options and rights, including serving notices and pursuing claims for unpaid rent through the courts. We also work with tenants facing genuine financial difficulties, aiming to find solutions that avoid court proceedings whenever possible.
Property Repairs and Maintenance Disputes
Issues around property maintenance and repairs can lead to significant disputes. We provide guidance on both landlords' obligations to keep properties in a habitable condition and tenants' responsibilities to care for the property. If disagreements arise over repair responsibilities or damages, our solicitors can help mediate or represent clients in legal proceedings to resolve disputes efficiently and fairly.
