Notable Cases

A case involving subletting, whereby a resident was profiting from a social housing property by subletting illegally. We managed to obtain an outright possession order forthwith and an unlawful profit order for a sum of £22,500.00

Access injunctions for fire safety works, whereby resident(s) have failed to provide access for landlords to carry out mandatory fire safety works following FRA’s. We have been successful in obtaining access injunctions for the purposes of gaining access and carrying out the required works. In some cases, the injunction order is in place for the duration of the tenancy.
