    Setting up a tenancy in England covers creating a legally binding domestic rental arrangement between a landlord and a tenant, including the form of tenancy, the rent, and the rights and responsibilities of both sides. A solicitor drafts or reviews the tenancy agreement, checks references, arranges tenancy deposits with a registered scheme, and ensures notices, inventories and inspections are properly handled. They also guide compliance with right-to-rent checks and the transfer or renewal of the tenancy as needed.

    “A thorough and professional service. The solicitor understood exactly what was needed and prepared a clear Deed of Variation that could be acted on by the executors. It took longer than the estimated 10 days, largely due to the unavoidable delays due to the long use of the paper post system.”

    “We recently used their services to assist with the legalities of buying our first property and wanted to leave a review as I found their services to be great. The company was referred to initially by a friend, who was very happy with her experience and I definitely can agree. Our case was handled by Paul, who was amazing. As first time buyers who didn’t know much about what to expect, he was incredibly informative and supportive, making sure to look out for our best interests. He also came back on our queries promptly and when there was a period that he was on annual leave, made sure to brief team members on our case thoroughly for his absence. I don’t usually write reviews, but the experience that I had with them made me want to leave a note, so that if anyone’s on the fence about using them-they definitely should!”

Melissa inspired confidence and was efficient, knowledgeable and charming and pushed the exchange through on quite a tight schedule. It could have been very stressful - moving my mum from one side of the country to another - but really hasn’t been. Many thanks indeed!”

    “I arranged to speak to Andrew Campbell to discuss an on-going domestic issue linked to a property. Throughout the meeting Andrew was attentive, made sure he fully understood the situation, and my concerns, while providing a detailed breakdown of options available to me. At no time did I feel pushed into a course of action. Overall the service I recieved was excellent.”
