This is another specialist area of the law.
Some firms will for their own reasons act either for landlords or tenants
but not both. Solicitors and staff at Vickers & Co. hold a wide variety
of political opinions and we are happy to act for either tenants or landlords
to the best of our ability.
Landlords:
Typical work includes:
- Preparing tenancy agreements
- Serving notices to end tenancies
- Advising on obligations imposed by (i) the tenancy agreement and (ii)
Acts of Parliament (e.g. repairing covenants).
Courts work includes:
- Possession proceedings (including the accelerated procedure for
assured shorthold tenancies).
- Money judgments (e.g. rent arrears)
- Defending disrepair and harassment claims.
Tenants:
You may be entitled to free or subsidised legal
advice. We can:
- Fight possession proceedings
- Apply to Court for repairs to be carried out.
- Claim compensation if your home is in disrepair.
- Help you with transfers and rehousing.
- Make complaints to the relevant Ombudsman on your behalf
- Assist with transferring a tenancy on a relatives death.
