We can offer free legal advice where your home may be at risk, you are homeless, or your home is in poor condition and affecting your or your family’s health. We cover Bristol, South Glos, B&NES and North Somerset.
We provide specialist advice and representation on a wide range of housing problems including complex possession cases, homelessness appeals and judicial review. Types of housing issues we help with:
We cannot assist with boundary disputes or advise landlords.
If you are at risk of losing your home please contact us as soon as possible. It is important to seek advice at the earliest stage, as soon as you receive notice of possession or notice to quit from your landlord. However we may be able to help you even if the court bailiffs have given you a date for eviction.
If you have applied as homeless to the local authority and feel that an incorrect decision has been made then we may be able to assist you with a challenge to the county court or to the high court.
We have a Legal Aid Outreach contract in B&NES and can meet with you in Bath on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, between 2-5pm. Please call us to make an appointment:
We can represent you in your housing case in Bath County Court under the duty solicitor scheme. Please check it is operating the day of your hearing.
Free, weekly sessions to guide tenants on how to navigate the often-complicated private rental market. We offer one-off 30 minute appointments run by trained volunteers (law students).
To book a free, one-off appointment with one of our trained volunteers, please contact us on 0117 924 8662 or email mail@bristollawcentre.org.uk
