Housing- Landlord & Tenants

What is Landlord-Tenant Law?

Tenancy can be a legally complex matter, whether you are the landlord or the tenant. For example, setting up a tenancy has multiple statutory requirements that it must meet, such as safety standards, rights to rent, and other obligations such as under the UK Landlord & Tenant Act 1985.

After successfully renting out a property, however, disputes can still occur between landlords and tenants in the residential property, including:

  • Breach of the Tenancy Agreement
  • Eviction from the Property
  • Disputes over Payment and Deposits
  • Repairment Issues

How can Juris Matrix Solicitors help?

Juris Matrix Solicitors have solicitors that can help you as either the landlord, or the tenant.

If you are the landlord, we will help to deal with any issues with your tenant. Common issues include carrying out repairs, disagreements with your tenant on payment (such as falling behind the payment period), and more. Talking to us will not immediately result in a legal action, as our goal is also a quick and amicable resolution of the issue.

Let Us Help You!

If you need any helps, please feel free to contact us. 

If you wish to end tenancy as a whole, however, the process can be quite complex and may result in serious dispute. You may evict a tenant through what is known as a Section 8 or a Section 21 Notice, depending on your causes for wanting to recover your possession. Our solicitors will make sure you have fulfilled all your obligations as the landlord, such as giving reasonable notice, and help you choose the best option to prevent further disputes from arising.

If you are the tenant, we will do our best to advise and represent you. We recommend that you seek legal advice in the initial stages of your Tenancy Agreement, so that we can advise you on any potentially unfair clauses and your tenant rights. If you are already facing unfair eviction, or allegations of breaching the tenancy agreement, we will also provide you a tailored strategy for your circumstance.
