Housing Law Handbook is an essential resource for housing lawyers and advisers. It combines comprehensive coverage of the substantive law with a practical approach, focusing on procedure and the common problems faced by practitioners, from court proceedings and the tactics of running a case, to challenging decisions and seeking remedies.

The fifth edition has been updated to include the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, Tenant Fees Act 2019 and Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 and extensive case-law since the previous edition including key judgments on:

  • Possession: defences based on the public sector equality duty, possession notices
  • Homelessness: Homelessness Reduction Act duties, the public sector equality duty, affordability, accommodation duties, out of borough placements, reviews and appeals
  • Landlord and tenant: tenancy deposits and unlawful eviction damages, gas safety certificates, Rent Repayment Orders and civil penalties.
  • Allocations: discrimination, overcrowding

Housing Law Handbook is structured and written in a user-friendly way, making it both an indispensable handbook for the experienced housing lawyer and accessible to non-specialist advisers and students of housing law. Each chapter begins with key points and each section contains checklists and summaries. The book is also fully supported by appendices and precedents.
