Where a solicitor protects your position
The solicitor helps protect your position when local authorities make or refuse housing decisions, including homelessness duties, allocations, and securing suitable accommodation. They handle evidence gathering, correspondence with housing departments, and raise or respond to reviews, appeals, or court or tribunal processes to preserve your housing rights and prevent adverse decisions from becoming final.
