Areas of work

The Department deals with all aspects of housing law and landlord & tenant litigation and its interface with human rights law. We act in many of the cases which are developing the law in this important area. The department includes several leaders in their field. Edward Bartley Jones QC is the leading social housing silk in the North**. Head of Department Paul Burns is an "undisputed leader"** in social housing law who is "absolutely brilliant and a man with a high success rate...a pleasure to work with"**, and Sarah O'Brien is particularly highly regarded for her work on homelessness cases and the excellent way she interacts with clients** **source: Chambers UK 2012
