Landlord and Tenant

Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, you may need to seek specialist advice regarding your rights and obligations.

There are a number of ways in which residential landlords can ensure they are protected from tenancy issues and disputes. As such, our solicitors based in Swindon and Witney regularly advise on legal matters relating to:

  • Tenancy agreements 

  • Rent deposit 

  • Tenant eviction, including Section 8 Notices and Section 21 Notices

  • The eviction process 

Our experienced property dispute lawyers can provide sensible and pragmatic advice which is proportionate to the number of issues in dispute.

We will always try to resolve matters through negotiation, mediation or arbitration, but if that fails, we will be there to support you through a claim or defence in the civil courts or tribunals, and help you achieve the best possible outcome.

And to reiterate, at francis george solicitor-advocate, we can deal with your case from start to finish as Asif Robbani is a solicitor-advocate.

Meet the team

“I instructed Frank to act for me in relation to my divorce. Unfortunately, this became heavily contested and complex and has been ongoing for a number of years. Both Frank and Francesca have guided me through the process smoothly and are always on hand to answer any queries I have, whether that be legal or practical advice. They both know exactly what they’re talking about and I trust them implicitly, and whilst providing me with accurate legal advice they have always attempted to resolve matters with the least amount of confrontation, which has resulted in a very positive outcome for my daughter. They are really easy to talk to, very hands on and approachable. I would have every confidence in recommending them to others. I highly recommend using the family team at Francis George Solicitor-Advocate, whether that be for a smaller issue or a complex matter. I would always rest assured they would do a great job.”
