This area covers regaining occupation of a home when a tenant or occupant has not left voluntarily, by bringing and pursuing possession proceedings. A solicitor drafts and issues possession notices, issues proceedings in the County Court or of a similar jurisdiction, schedules hearings, and, if needed, secures a possession order and the enforcement of that order by bailiffs. They may coordinate with landlords, mortgagees, and tenants’ guarantors to resolve the matter and protect the landlord’s property and rights under tenancy law and housing policy.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The key protections concern the right to a lawful, timely eviction process and avoiding illegal removal. A solicitor’s involvement ensures the correct service of notices, proper court procedure, and the possibility to obtain and enforce a possession order, including any necessary warrants of possession issued by the court and carried out by accredited bailiffs.
