Social Housing - Wales & Chester (Bar)
What the Team is Known For
Cardiff-based Civitas Law represents registered social landlords, local authorities and private individuals in a range of social housing matters. Members are at the forefront of the current changes in the Welsh housing market brought about by the Renting Homes (Wales) Act. Their work includes allocation policy review and anti-social behaviour mandates. The set also regularly acts on possession claims. Clients appreciate that the barristers "understand how housing providers operate and the challenges faced." Other sources highlight the set's strength in depth: "There are a number of members in chambers who can assist with housing work, so there is always someone available to deal with an urgent query or prepare advice or court papers." Danielle Smith is the practice manager.
