Frequently asked questions

How do I evict a tenant correctly?+

You must use the right notice and follow strict procedure, or a court can throw out your claim. A lawyer confirms which route applies, drafts the notice correctly, and handles the possession proceedings if needed.

My landlord will not fix disrepair, what can I do?+

If your home has serious disrepair that your landlord has failed to fix after being told, you may be able to force repairs and claim compensation. A short consultation confirms your rights and the best way to press the claim.

Can my landlord keep my deposit?+

Only for legitimate reasons such as damage beyond fair wear and tear or unpaid rent, and the deposit should be in a protected scheme. A lawyer can advise whether a deduction is fair and how to challenge it.

Not sure which lawyer you need?

Answer a few questions and we will map your situation and suggest next steps.
