Landlord & tenant disputes

Renting property offers practical benefits for both landlords and tenants, but disputes can sometimes arise, creating disruptions that impact finances, quality of life and peace of mind for either party.

Tensions between landlords and tenants are one of the most common kinds of disputes that can cause significant disruption to your home life and finances if not resolved effectively. Whether you’re a landlord protecting your property and rental income or a tenant safeguarding your living rights, our experienced team at Owen White Catlin are here to support you with clarity and determination.

At Owen White Catlin, we work closely with both tenants and landlords, using our substantial experience and comprehensive property legal knowledge to ensure that our clients’ rights are upheld and that they can confidently move forward feeling secure about their property issues.

We value a transparent, straightforward approach that involves you at every stage of the process. We appreciate that each case is unique and can promise that we’ll use the finest details of your situation to construct the most robust case possible.

Our disputes services for landlords include:

  • Buying & selling rental property
  • Tenancy agreements & leases
  • Possession claims
  • Property damage disputes
  • Disrepair issues
  • Rent arrears claims
  • Tenancy Deposits
  • Drafting Tenancy Agreements

Our disputes services for tenants include:

  • Property maintenance disputes
  • Rent-related disputes
  • Disrepair issues
  • Rent arrears claims
  • Tenancy Deposits

We firmly believe that disputes between landlords and tenants can usually be resolved outside of court.  Maintaining a respectful relationship between landlords and tenants can be crucial for a harmonious tenancy, and court proceedings are likely to sour relationships significantly. That’s why our solicitors specialise in alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation, arbitration and negotiation, which can provide a conciliatory solution to your disputes. Nevertheless, we appreciate that, sometimes, litigation is unavoidable. In these situations, you can count on us to be your trusting and determined advocate in court to achieve the results you deserve.
