Answer a few quick questions to find out if you qualify for compensation
Your landlord has a legal obligation to maintain your property in a habitable condition. Under UK housing law, they must ensure your home is free from hazards that could affect your health and wellbeing.
We specialise in claims against local councils and housing associations. These landlords have statutory duties under the Housing Act 2004 and Awaab's Law.
You pay nothing upfront. Our panel solicitors work on a Conditional Fee Agreement basis — if your claim is unsuccessful, you owe nothing.
We don't just claim money — we force your landlord to carry out essential repairs, ensuring your home meets legally required standards.
We work on a strictly no-win, no-fee basis. If your claim is unsuccessful, you pay nothing. There are no hidden costs or surprise bills.
We have assisted thousands of tenants in restoring their quality of life and obtaining the compensation they deserve.
Our passion lies in advocating for tenants' rights, especially when serious disrepair can lead to damage to belongings and health and safety concerns.
Our experienced team of solicitors will work tirelessly to build the strongest possible claim for disrepair to your landlord, using expert evidence and court action if necessary.
“At The Compensation People, we work on a strictly no-win, no-fee basis. If you would like to find out if you can make a claim, or have any questions about the process, please don't hesitate to contact our housing disrepair team today.”
