Top 10 of 4,694 law firms for Fitness for Human Habitation, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Fitness for Human Habitation describes the standard every home must meet to be considered suitable to live in. It arises from the Fitness for Human Habitation Act, which builds on the private rented sector framework to ensure properties are fit for occupancy. A solicitor practises in this area by reviewing a property's condition, advising on breaches, and guiding remedies when a home fails to meet the standard. They handle notices, negotiations, and potential court actions to secure repairs or compensation for tenants.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A breach means defects such as damp, excess damp mould, inadequate heating, ventilation or water supply, falling plaster and structural problems can render a dwelling unfit. A solicitor helps secure professional assessments, liaises with landlords or managing agents, and pursues remedies through statutory processes or court proceedings, backed by professional accountability and client protections.

Denise Bell

Tagged solicitor Denise Bell

My case was dealt with the upmost professionalism from beginning to conclusion.(7months) Regaining your property from a problem tenant is one of the most stressful situations I have had the displeasure of, for a long time. It is a practical mine field full of pitfalls ready to trip you up, if not handled correctly. Denise and Rikki Lee gave me all the info and direction required to positively evict the tenants and regain control of my property. A Big Thank you to them both, they did a great job.

In helping me to buy my first property (which of course I was initially nervous about), they have worked wonders and kept me updated every step of the way. Amy in particular has been very helpful and informative, and answered any queries I had thoroughly. I'm very grateful to her, for all her hard work. Thankyou. Keep up the good work

Jasmine Hayre

Tagged solicitor Jasmine Hayre

Jasmine was very quick to respond to all of my correspondence and make things clear when I was confused about any documentation during the search and purchasing process. She was very considerate of my deadline as I have to travel abroad to work and needed to complete on a strict deadline. She did everything she could to make this possible, and I’m glad to announce it was a great success. You hear stories sometimes of solicitors ignoring emails and waiting months and months this was certainly not the case for me, excellent work good luck, Jasmine in your long flourishing career. All done long distance too! Great stuff!
