The law states that every landlord who takes a deposit from a tenant has to protect that deposit by lodging it with one of 3 tenancy deposit protection schemes.
This is to stop Landlords utilising a Tenants deposit monies as income elsewhere and to make it easier to obtain the return of your deposit when a Tenancy comes to an end.
Lots of tenants find landlords finding unjustified reasons to retain deposits.
We can quickly check if the landlord has complied with the legislation or not.
If not, we will put you in touch with our independent panel solicitor who specialises in this area of the law and will pursue compensation on your behalf.
You do not need to still be a tenant there and we can check on previous tenancy agreements.
