Housing

At Sweetman Burke and Sinker we can help tenants and residential occupiers when they are faced with problems of repossession, illegal eviction and disrepair. We can help homeless people entitled to rehousing by their local authority to obtain that accommodation. We can also help landlords who need to recover their property.

Having a place to live, whether you are a tenant, an owner occupier or a homeless person is one of the most basic needs of every person. Unfortunately the law about housing is very complicated. We understand it and can help you to enforce the rights it gives you.

We have many years of experience in housing problems and homelessness. We will give you authoritative advice on your difficulties and help you to deal with them as quickly and efficiently as we can.

We provide advice on

• Possession proceedings brought by landlords and mortgage companies
• Disrepair claims
• Protection from illegal eviction and harassment
• Homelessness
• Security of tenure
• Rights of the family when a tenant dies
