Top 10 of 4,693 law firms for Occupation of Property, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Occupation of property covers who may live in, occupy, or stay on a property, including tenants, licensees, and trespassers, and the legal rights that govern those occupancies. A solicitor practicing in this area handles the steps needed to establish or enforce occupancy rights under English housing law. They draft and serve notices to quit, pursue possession or eviction proceedings in the County Courts, and negotiate or apply for orders that regulate who may stay and on what terms, including potential settlements with landlords, mortgagees, or local authorities.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key matters are the consequences of losing occupancy, such as evictions, loss of home, or disruption to care arrangements. A solicitor provides guidance on the relevant procedures, deadlines, and evidentiary requirements in possession actions, and ensures compliance with court rules and protective measures for occupiers and landlords. They help with applications to the court for possession orders, warrants for eviction, and, where appropriate, tenant remedies and defenses within the statutory framework.

Can’t rate Harry highly enough. Always very quick to respond and guided me through the process of buying my first property. Always very patient when I asked questions. Peter was also a great help.

Karen Woods

Tagged solicitor Karen Woods

I have used Russell and Russell Solicitors for every house sale and purchase - each time quality service. This purchase was extremely complicated due to the chain in my sale but Karen Woods and Diane Asbury were so supportive and ensured the purchase completed and they both stayed behind after 5pm to ensure the funds got to the solicitor for the house we're buying. It was so stressful but they were so supportive and we can't thank them enough. Totally recommend using this firm for both sales and purchases.

Faith Sutton

Tagged solicitor Faith Sutton

During the sale of our house, Faith was exceptionally efficient and had all of our paperwork ready in an impressively quick time. The chain below us was complex and took many months but Faith chased up everything that was needed and enabled us to complete the sale. We would completely recommend Faith for any property sales.
