Landlord and Tenant Residential
Many new laws have been introduced under the Housing Act 2004.  Most significant of these for the Landlord will be the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), the HMO licensing scheme and the Tenancy Deposit Scheme.   We can advise the landlord on how to avoid the major pitfalls that beset the unwary. 
Occasionally, even experienced landlords will come across problem tenants.  Possession claims are our speciality and we will act swiftly to recover possession ensuring that the landlord can enter into occupation and re-let the property.  Routine possession claims will be done on a fixed fee basis.  Please email us for details.
Landlord and Tenant Commercial
We act for a wide range of commercial landlords and tenants with property portfolios of varying sizes.   We deal with enforcement of covenants including payment of rent and service charge, repairing obligations and dilapidations, applications for assignment and sub-letting possession.    We can also advise on forfeiture and distraint. 
Housing Law
Housing problems such as leasehold or tenancy rights disputes or disrepair can have a devastating effect on individuals and families.   Knowing your rights or duties under the terms of the tenancy and having appropriate legal help at these times can prevent the situation becoming worse.  We also understand that in some cases the situation may have deteriorated to the extent that you now need a solicitor who can act quickly and sympathetically.
We can assist you with legal advice on your rights and responsibilities as a leaseholder.  We will explore what options are available to you or advise you what action you should take if things have already started to go wrong.  We can help you argue your case by negotiating and making representations on your behalf and by acting for you in court proceedings, if necessary.
