Housing

What we do

We offer specialist housing law advice to the people of Sheffield and its surrounding areas. We also offer a full casework and representation service for most areas of housing law including repossession claims and disrepair.

 

What we don't do

 

How to contact us

We prefer you to contact our Enquiry Line on 0114 2731888 in the first instance.

 

When you contact us, your contact details and a brief outline of your problem will be taken by a reception worker. This will be then passed on to the housing team who will then contact you by phone to get fuller details of the problem.

 

The speed with which the caseworker will respond will depend on how busy we are. It could be the same day but may be longer.
