We act for private renters, leaseholders, commercial tenants, students, and housing association tenants, ensuring your rights are enforced and your voice is heard.
What Is Tenant Legal Support
Tenants—whether residential or commercial—face a wide range of legal issues, from landlord disputes to repair failures and illegal eviction attempts. These issues can affect your safety, finances, and peace of mind. We support tenants with:
- Defending eviction and possession proceedings
- Enforcing repair obligations and health standards
- Challenging excessive or unlawful rent or service charges
- Reviewing and negotiating tenancy or lease terms
Tenant Dispute Categories
Tenants often face legal challenges that require swift and knowledgeable support. At Axis Solicitors, we help tenants resolve a wide range of disputes—ensuring their rights are upheld and their homes or business premises are protected. Our solicitors are experienced in all tenancy types, from private residential to commercial leases and social housing.
Facing a Property Matter?
Our team is here to provide you with the support, assistance, and solutions you need to navigate the process.
We defend tenants against unlawful or premature eviction attempts, ensuring that landlords follow proper legal procedures and respect your right to remain.
We represent tenants in claims involving failure to carry out repairs, unsafe living conditions, or prolonged disrepair—pursuing enforcement or compensation where justified.
We act where deposits have not been protected correctly, have been unfairly withheld, or where tenants are entitled to compensation under tenancy deposit regulations.
We challenge unlawful rent increases, incorrect service charges, or demands that breach tenancy terms or housing law.
Additional Legal Support for Tenants
Tenant issues can often overlap with wider legal concerns. At Axis Solicitors, we offer complete legal support to ensure your tenancy rights are enforced in every scenario:
We help tenants in poor housing conditions claim for inconvenience, health impact, or alternative accommodation costs.
We communicate on your behalf to resolve conflicts and secure legally compliant outcomes.
If you’ve fallen behind on rent, we help negotiate repayment terms or defend claims where arrears are disputed.
Where eviction or housing issues intersect with protected characteristics, we take legal action for discrimination.
From small claims to First-Tier Tribunal or County Court, we provide full legal representation to tenants.

If you are a tenant facing legal issues with your landlord or need advice on your rights under your tenancy in Islamabad, speaking with a specialized solicitor can indeed provide valuable assistance.
No. There is a strict legal process. If your landlord tries to remove you without a valid notice and court order, it may be an illegal eviction. We can help stop it.
Keep records and notify the landlord in writing. We can take legal steps to enforce the repair obligation or claim compensation.
It should be. If not, we can help you claim up to 3x the deposit amount in compensation.
Section 8 is used for breaches like rent arrears; Section 21 is a ‘no fault’ eviction notice. We advise on how to challenge either.
Possibly, depending on your financial situation and the nature of the issue (e.g. disrepair or homelessness). We’ll advise you on funding options.
