Top 10 of 4,694 law firms for Main Housing Duty, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This covers the local authority’s main homelessness duty in England, including how a person is assessed for homelessness, what accommodation and support may be offered, and the steps to challenge or review the duty if the initial decision is unfavorable.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The main housing duty arises when a person is found to be unintentionally homeless or threatened with homelessness. A solicitor would help gather and present evidence to the local authority, apply for a review or appeal if the duty is discharged incorrectly, and advise on securing interim or final accommodation under the Housing Act 1996 and related regulations. They may also liaise with housing options, tenancy support, and, where needed, the county court for remedies if decisions are disputed.

We had the pleasure of working with Amphlett Lissimore Solicitors for the sale of our house, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the start, Stephanie Bastien and her team were incredible. Our house sale was far from straightforward, but Stephanie was professional, efficient, and always ready to assist. She provided clear guidance every step of the way, ensuring we felt supported throughout the entire process. The team’s dedication and expertise truly set them apart. They were responsive, proactive, and consistently went above and beyond to handle our complex situation. Thanks to their hard work, we managed to navigate through all the challenges smoothly. If you're looking for reliable, knowledgeable, and personable solicitors, look no further than Amphlett Lissimore. Highly recommend their services!

David Chapman

Tagged solicitor David Chapman

We used Amicus Law for the recent sale of our house and purchase of our new property here in Minehead. David Chapman and his team provided excellent service. They dealt with everything very quickly and kept us fully informed at every stage. David was always available to answer any queries or concerns. He worked hard at the end to make sure we completed on the given day as there was a problem further down the chain. I would recommend Amicus Law and would certainly use them again.
