Social Housing: Tenants | UK

UK-wide

This table ranks lawyers and law firms who represent social housing tenants in claims against landlords, housing providers and local authorities. This includes issues ranging from housing allocation and disrepair through to rent arrears, possession and eviction, as well as issues surrounding homelessness. This table is solely for tenant representation, however we have extensive coverage elsewhere in the UK guide for firms advising on more general social housing work, as well as a separate table for the financing of social housing developments.
