Judge & Priestley was awarded one of the first local authority contracts for the provision of external legal services in 1990. Since then we have successfully developed a niche for providing housing management advice and litigation support to local authority and registered providers.
Our solicitors specialise in providing practical legal advice. We work closely with our clients to deliver services on time and on budget and can advise on all of the issues that affect the management of social housing, finding workable early solutions to problems wherever possible.
We provide a bespoke service for each individual local authority and social housing provider. The team can deliver training and advice on a number of topics from updates and changes in the law, investigating complaints and decision making, policy and procedures and preparation of statements and evidence, through to file management, and preparation and delivery of evidence in Court.
