Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers how social housing is allocated and how transfers between council or housing association homes are handled. It includes eligibility for council accommodation, the local housing authority’s allocation scheme, bid or measurement of need, and the process for moving a household from one property to another. A solicitor in this field drafts and reviews applications, helps gather evidence of need (income, medical or family circumstances), and advises on the rights and limitations within the Housing Act and the allocation framework.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decision to grant or refuse a transfer or allocation can be outcome-determinative for a household’s housing security, affecting eligibility for priority housing, access to adapted properties, and timing of move. A solicitor’s role includes explaining deadlines, securing interim housing where needed, challenging unlawful refusals, and ensuring compliance with the local authority’s scheme and statutory homelessness duties.

Andrew Campbell

Tagged solicitor Andrew Campbell

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.

Graeme Booth

Tagged solicitor Graeme Booth

Graeme dealt with the sale of my late mother's house in Cornwall. Under difficult circumstances of COVID, the service was excellent. He was always responsive to any questions/enquiries and even when he was away from the office he made sure there was continuity, resulting in a prompt sale completion. Thank you
