Professional advice helped us out
We encountered a very difficult situation concerning the occupation of our daughter's flat. Emma Slade provided timely, clear advice, responding quickly to any developments in the situation. This meant that we stayed within the law in all of our dealings with the occupant, we were made aware of our options and there was an ultimately successful resolution. I would highly recommend Emma Slade to anyone experiencing issues with tenancy law.
