What clients say:

“When I needed help with a Section 21 hearing triggered by a typo on the AST, I was so relieved to have found Amy. Her expertise and understanding were evident from the start. Amy identified a solution, attended the hearing, and successfully convinced the judge to award possession. Without her, the case would likely have been thrown out, costing me another six months in gaining possession from a problem tenant. Amy came highly recommended to me, and I'd recommend her to any landlords needing assistance.”

“Your way of working is brilliant. You give constructive advice that I understand, which, in the more complicated cases is a god send.”

“I just wanted to thank you for your assistance with this case. You made an extremely difficult case much easier to progress, so thank you very much.”

Amy has been named as a Ranked Lawyer in the Legal 500, whose review confirms:

“Amy is an absolute star. She is very knowledgeable, provides clear and up to date advice. She is polite, friendly and will go the extra mile for you.”
