Landlord & Tenant Solicitors in Manchester

A rental market with real pressure

Few places in the country have a busier rental market than Manchester. Apartment blocks fill the city centre, terraced streets stretch across Salford and Didsbury, and demand keeps churning through the Trafford area and beyond. With so many tenancies, disputes over possession, deposits and conditions are part of everyday life.

We are based in Bolton but regularly advise people with property matters right across Manchester, meeting clients by appointment. Possession and housing claims for the area are dealt with through the relevant county court, and we guide clients through that process from start to finish.

Acting for landlords

Investors and private landlords across Manchester rely on rules being followed to the letter. Where they are not, a possession claim can collapse. We help landlords end tenancies correctly, tackle rent arrears and protect their investment.

When tenants stop paying, we advise on recovering rent arrears and, where necessary, taking matters further. Our landlord and tenant team also reviews tenancy agreements and advises on the safe handling of deposits so problems are avoided before they start.

Acting for tenants

Renting in a high-demand city can leave tenants feeling powerless, but the law offers real protection. We advise Manchester renters facing eviction, disputes over deposit returns, and landlords who ignore their repairing duties.

If your home is suffering from damp, disrepair or unsafe conditions, you do not have to accept it. We can press your landlord to put things right and pursue a remedy where they refuse.

Clear advice, fairly given

Property disputes are stressful whichever side you are on, so we focus on telling you plainly what the law says and what outcome is realistic. Many disagreements can be settled through negotiation once each side understands its position, which spares everyone the expense and uncertainty of a hearing. Where that is not possible, we are prepared to take the matter through the court process and represent your interests firmly. Our solicitors speak English, Urdu and Punjabi, helping clients from Manchester’s varied communities feel properly understood.

Arrange an appointment with us and we will review your situation and recommend a sensible way forward.
