Our Housing team is made up of some of the most experienced specialist Housing Solicitors in London.
The team takes on cases which many would find too difficult or challenging to pursue, but the lawyers are willing to try innovative ways to defend cases, which can be extremely valuable for vulnerable clients.

Our Experience As Housing Lawyers
Our social housing lawyers have developed a national reputation for success in cases in the High Court, Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court, developing housing law in the process.
Our work has been recognised by the Legal 500 (where we are ranked in Tier 3) and Chambers and Partners (Band 2).
Our Housing Law Solicitors are also active in the local county courts, issuing urgent applications and appeals on housing matters where appropriate.
Two of our Housing solicitors (Jacky Starling and Shazina Hussain) act as duty solicitors at the Clerkenwell and Shoreditch County Court and Stratford Housing Centre.
Key Services
There is a breadth of knowledge within the housing team, which means that we deliver a rounded service that has expertise, professionalism, and insight at its heart.

Recommendations
This firm’s legal aid housing practice is dedicated, caring, efficient and effective. It provides an essential service for vulnerable and disadvantaged tenants and homeless people. They also sometimes go further in working on policy issues relevant to their clients in co-operation with other organisations.

TV Edwards has a very strong team representing social housing and private tenants. It is almost uniquely well-placed to deal with difficult cases for clients with complex needs given not only the strength of its community care, mental health and court of protection teams, but also the fact that many members of the housing team also work in these areas.
– Legal 500 UK (2024)
I am very impressed with TV Edwards and what they stand for. They have a real commitment to ensure that everybody has access to legal representation and access to justice.

TV Edwards is an outstanding law firm with an excellent social housing team. Its solicitors are dedicated, intelligent, determined, and empathetic. The solicitors I have worked with have particular expertise in dealing with vulnerable clients, many of whom lack capacity.
