Top 10 of 4,694 law firms for Transfers and Allocations of Council Accommodation, Housing & Property

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.

We have used Streathers Solicitors for purchasing a freehold and a subsequent voluntary lease extension. Couldn’t have been happier with their service and highly recommend them. Thanks a lot to Jo, Rebecca and Jaime for making the whole experience fast and smooth! Will definitely engage with them again.

Rachel Hardingham

Tagged solicitor Rachel Hardingham

Rachel Hardingham at Winckworths has guided us through the enfranchisement of our Kennington flat along with the other leaseholders and then through its sale with calm professional advice throughout. There were some tricky legal points which Rachel dealt with superbly and I would recommend her services to anyone seeking to go through the same processes
