Getting housing advice
The Law Centre acts for individuals only and does not act for landlords or mortgage lenders. We are able to advise anyone living in Coventry. We have attained the Legal Services Commission's 'Quality Mark' at the Specialist Help level for housing law. We have held this since March 1999.
We will advise both tenants and owner-occupiers about their housing rights. We provide help for individuals facing possession actions, evictions, harassment, disrepair, rent arrears and housing benefit problems related to their housing situation. We also offer advice on homelessness, housing allocation by social landlords, transfers and nuisance issues.
Our advisers are particular experts in representation and advocacy at the Court. The Law Centre has also written a range of leaflets on common housing rights matters. These can be downloaded from this web site or collected from the Law Centre. If you need an interpreter please let us know so that we can arrange for one to be present any interview.
