Top 10 of 4,694 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.

Claire Haigh

Tagged solicitor Claire Haigh

I can't recommend Claire at McGarry Solicitors highly enough. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Claire kept me fully informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Her attention to detail and proactive approach gave me complete confidence that everything was being handled properly. What really stood out was her calm, friendly manner and genuine commitment to achieving the best outcome. She made what could have been a stressful experience feel straightforward and manageable. If you're looking for a solicitor who is efficient, approachable, and truly cares about her clients, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Claire and the team at McGarry Solicitors. Thank you for providing such an outstanding service.

Ania Lindsay

Tagged solicitor Ania Lindsay

I have nothing but positive things to say about Ania at HAL Solicitors and the service she provided. From the outset, she handled our conveyancing with great care and precision, making sure everything was dealt with efficiently and correctly. Ania was consistently clear, responsive, and proactive in her communication, keeping us updated throughout and making the whole process feel straightforward and well managed. It was obvious that she genuinely wanted everything to progress smoothly, which was incredibly reassuring. She is also a pleasure to deal with professional, friendly, and approachable. I would highly recommend Ania to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive conveyancing solicitor. The wider team were equally impressive, particularly Sam, who helped get us set up incredibly quickly, the entire onboarding process took less than an hour. We were referred by someone who had a great experience, and it’s easy to see why this firm comes so highly recommended.
