Top 10 of 4,693 law firms for Becoming a Live in Landlord, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers the situation where a homeowner lets out a room or a part of their home while they continue to live there, known in plain language as becoming a live-in landlord. It involves choosing between a lodger licence or an assured informal tenancy, and navigating the rights and duties that arise for both the occupier and the homeowner. It depends on the type of agreement and how it is drafted, documented and enforced. The process may be shaped by tenancy rules, eviction rights and safety obligations.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decision is whether the occupier has a licence or a tenancy, which affects eviction rights and the level of protection. A solicitor can advise on drafting a clear licence or tenancy agreement, serving lawful notices, and handling issues such as rent payments, deposits, and potential disputes. They can also assist with safety standards, rights of access, and resolving conflicts without escalating to court proceedings when possible.

Emma King

Tagged solicitor Emma King

Having recently lost my Husband, I came to Emma King and her team feeling stressed and lost, as during our long marriage, my Husband dealt with all things legal and financial, however, from the beginning Emma inspired confidence, taking the reins and thereby relieving any stress. This was reflected throughout the conveyancing process by Emma and her team. All work was carried out efficiently and effectively, along with being friendly and polite. Matthew & Matthew willl now be my go to legal people, when the need arises.

Kellie Darke

Tagged solicitor Kellie Darke

I used Kellie Darke ably assisted by Katy Langley to manage the conveyancing for my house purchase. I was under a ridiculously tight t deadline to exchange and complete just before Christmas. Both Kellie and Katy were so very lovely, extremely knowledgeable, and couldn’t do enough to help me achieve this - coming off of holiday to chase things for me. I was fairly ignorant of the processes and at all times felt able to call, pop in and ask any questions in order to get this through. I cannot thank them enough and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for help with conveyancing or similar.
