Zero risk, zero upfront costs. We believe that every tenant deserves legal representation, regardless of their financial situation. Here is exactly how our funding model works.
Formally known as a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), it is a contract between you and your solicitor. It states that you will not have to pay any legal fees if your housing disrepair claim is unsuccessful.
This model was designed to give people who cannot afford expensive hourly legal rates access to the justice system. At Disrepair Support, we have fully embraced this model to protect tenants from bullying landlords.
We fund everything from the start. You don't pay for the initial assessment, the expert surveyor's report, or any legal filings.
If your claim does not succeed, you owe us nothing. We take on the financial risk so that you don't have to.
Because we only get paid if we win, we are highly motivated to secure the maximum possible compensation for you.
If your claim is successful, we charge a "success fee" which is deducted from your final compensation amount. This fee is a pre-agreed percentage and is capped by law to ensure you keep the vast majority of your payout.
Our solicitors will explain exactly what this percentage is before you sign anything. There are no hidden charges and no surprise bills at the end of the process.
Time limits apply to housing disrepair claims. Don't wait until it's too late.
You have up to 6 years from when the disrepair began to make a claim. After that, you lose your legal right to compensation permanently.
Damp, mould and structural issues worsen over time, damaging your health and belongings. Every month you delay costs you more suffering.
The longer the disrepair has existed, the higher your compensation. Acting now means we can claim for every month you've suffered.
Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, your landlord has strict legal duties. If they've failed, you can claim.
Wherever you are in England and Wales, our specialist team can help you claim the repairs and compensation you deserve.
