For Tenants

As a tenant, you have legal rights that protect you from unfair treatment, poor housing conditions, and financial losses due to landlord negligence. Many tenants are unaware of their rights or fear repercussions when challenging their landlords. If your landlord has failed in their legal duties, you may be entitled to compensation.

We can help with:

✔ Housing disrepair claims – If your rental property is in poor condition and your landlord has failed to address necessary repairs, you may be entitled to compensation. Issues such as damp, mould, leaks, broken heating, faulty wiring, pest infestations, or structural damage can severely impact your quality of life. Your landlord has a legal obligation to maintain a safe and habitable living environment.

✔ Tenancy deposit disputes – Landlords are legally required to protect your tenancy deposit in a government-approved scheme. If your deposit has not been protected or your landlord has unfairly withheld it at the end of your tenancy, you may have grounds for compensation.

✔ Unlawful eviction and harassment claims – If your landlord has forced you out without proper legal proceedings, changed the locks, shut off utilities, or harassed you into leaving, this could be an unlawful eviction. We can help you take legal action to seek compensation and reinstatement in your home if necessary.

✔ Breach of tenancy agreement – If your landlord has violated any terms of your agreement, such as raising rent unfairly, failing to provide agreed-upon services, or imposing unlawful charges, we can enforce your rights.

✔ Rent and service charge disputes – If you have been wrongly charged for repairs, excessive fees, or unfair service charges, we can help challenge these costs and ensure you are treated fairly.

✔ Disputes over property damage and maintenance responsibilities – If you are being blamed for property damage that was not your fault or your landlord is refusing to address critical maintenance issues, we can negotiate on your behalf.

If you have reported issues to your landlord and they have failed to act, you may be eligible for compensation and free repairs. Get in touch with our legal team today at 0161 436 0006 for a free, no-obligation consultation.

For Landlords

As a law-abiding landlord, you want to manage your property efficiently while remaining compliant with the law. However, when tenants become uncooperative, whether through non-payment of rent, property damage, or refusing to vacate, seeking legal action can be daunting. The wrong move could result in costly compensation claims against you.

We understand the challenges you face and offer expert legal support to help protect your investment, enforce your rights, and resolve disputes as efficiently as possible.

We can assist with:

✔ Tenant evictions and possession proceedings – If you have a tenant refusing to vacate your property, we can guide you through the legal eviction process, ensuring compliance with the latest regulations to avoid unlawful eviction claims.

✔ Resolving non-payment of rent – When tenants fail to pay rent, it can put landlords under significant financial strain. We can help you take legal action to recover arrears and, if necessary, regain possession of your property.

✔ Breach of tenancy agreement – If your tenant is violating noise restrictions, subletting illegally, causing property damage, or failing to uphold their responsibilities, we can help you enforce the terms of the tenancy agreement.

✔ Property damage disputes – If a tenant has damaged your property beyond normal wear and tear, we can assist in recovering repair costs and holding the responsible party accountable.

✔ Landlord licensing and regulatory compliance – Staying compliant with ever-changing rental regulations can be complex. We provide guidance on licensing requirements, health and safety obligations, and tenancy laws to protect you from legal risks.

✔ Disputes over deposit deductions – If you need to deduct money from a tenant’s deposit for legitimate reasons but they are challenging the deductions, we can represent you in negotiations or tribunal proceedings.

✔ Defending against unfounded tenant claims – If a tenant has made an unwarranted complaint against you, such as false claims of disrepair or unlawful eviction, we will provide strong legal defence to protect your reputation and financial interests.
