Landlord & Tenant
How We Help
We support both residential and commercial clients across a wide range of landlord and tenant issues, including:
- Initial consultation & guidance - reviewing your tenancy or lease agreement, outlining your legal position, and identifying your options early
- Rent arrears & payment issues - advising on missed payments, negotiating repayment terms, or taking steps to recover arrears
- Repair & maintenance disputes - clarifying who’s responsible for what, and helping you deal with disrepair or unreasonable demands
- Breach of agreement - supporting landlords issuing notices, or tenants responding to allegations of breach
- Eviction & possession - explaining the correct legal process for ending a tenancy or lease, and assisting with Section 8, Section 21, or forfeiture routes
- Deposit disputes - helping resolve disagreements over deductions, damage, or tenancy deposit scheme rules
- Communicating on your behalf - drafting letters or notices to the other party and keeping the process clear and professional
Whether the issue relates to a private tenancy or a commercial lease, we’ll help you take action in a way that’s proportionate, informed, and legally sound.
Things to Consider
It’s worth being clear on a few key points before taking further steps:
- what the tenancy or lease agreement actually says
- what evidence you have (e.g. emails, reports, inspection records)
- whether the issue can be resolved informally
- whether the correct process has been followed
- what outcome you're seeking - and how best to achieve it
We’ll help you work through the detail and decide the right course of action for your situation.
