These terms and conditions have been prepared to help you understand the basis on which we shall be acting for you. If anything is not clear, please do not hesitate to ask us to explain. Please read all of these terms and conditions carefully as you will be bound by them unless we agree otherwise.
1. The Landlord and Tenant Group
1.1 The Landlord and Tenant Group is a trading name of Landlord Legal Assist Limited is a company registered in England and Wales under the Companies Acts (company registration number – 12528511). Any reference to “Landlord Legal Assist”, “LLA”, “we” or “us”, whether in this or any other document or communication from us, is to Landlord Legal Assist Limited and all contracts entered into and all advice given in relation to our business are entered into or are given by this company only.
1.2 All contracts and/or obligations entered into or advice given in relation to our business by directors, employees or consultants of Landlord Legal Assist Limited are entered into or given by Landlord Legal Assist Limited and not those individuals personally.
1.3 Landlord Legal Assist Limited may assign our rights and/or obligations under our agreement with you to any business which is a successor to our business, a part of, an allocated subcontractor or affiliated partner firm. You will be responsible for any costs charged by the third party in respect of works undertaken on your file.
1.4 We may sub-contract or assign any litigated matters to our elected solicitors’/legal firm or to any successor or part of its or their operations or business or to any enforcement firm or to any successor or part of its or their operations or business on your instructions. We will be your point of contact for the services for enforcement and all charges payable by you in respect of such sub contracted and/or assigned services shall be payable to us until the point of referral. All fees incurred and charged by the elected assigned or subcontracted firm will be the responsibility of the instructing client.
1.5 We are affiliated with our supervising solicitors’ firm, Robson & Co. solicitors. On litigation being commenced, in circumstances if so required, the instructing client will enter into a separate retainer and agreement with Robson & Co. solicitors allowing us to continue to act on your behalf whilst under their supervision to ensure compliance with the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA), whereby the terms and conditions and fees charged will be solely arranged between the instructing client and Landlord Legal Assist Limited by way of Robson & Co. solicitors.
1.6 In the event that litigation commences and we are able to continue to undertake litigation in house without the supervision of an SRA regulated firm, should circumstances permit and authority is granted by the court, we will continue to act on your behalf in house assisting you in acting as a litigant in person, as a paralegal law firm. Upon which, all works will be undertaken in accordance with our fixed fee structure, unless agreed otherwise.
1.7 In the event that we are assisting you in acting as a litigant in person in house, we will not be acting under the supervision of Robson & Co. Solicitors. These works will only be permitted as long as the works do not amount to any reserved activities as per the Legal Services Act (2007) including but not limited to the right to conduct litigation and the right to audience. This will be advised prior to instructions and will be at the client’s discretion as to whether to utilise this option.
2. Our Fees and Expenses
2.1 We will quote fees applicable to our in house standard services as per our documentation and/or website’s quote and by taking an action to process the recovery of your debt you are agreeing that you have viewed these fees and agree to them. Fees will always be fixed for the standard process undertaken by Landlord Legal Assist Limited if the works fall within our fixed fee regime. The full fixed fees will be provided to you on commencement of any works undertaken. Where matters become complex, require additional works or fall outside of our fixed fee regime, then our hourly rate will apply and we will always quote fees to you prior to commencing any non-standard work in so far as possible.
2.2 We will assume that we have authority to incur usual expenses (known as disbursements) in the course of our work for you unless you tell us otherwise. These will be charged to you as costs in addition to our fees (if so required) and in some instances may be billed separately. Examples of disbursements are the cost to prepare and transfer files, additional postage costs and additional/or excessive photocopying costs.
2.3 Where we do not agree a fixed or other fee, our fees for most services are calculated at a rate of £150.00 per hour or part thereof. We will always advise you of the basis for charging in advance of undertaking the work if it falls outside of our fixed fee rates or regime and provide a quote for the same.
2.4 We may set a limit on the fees and disbursements we may incur without your consent. If you wish to do so please confirm the limit in writing.
2.5 Where we are instructed to act for more than one person, your liability for our fees and expenses shall be joint and several.
2.6 We may make other charges for services provided internally, for example, photocopying, postage or the provision of date via electronic storage devices. Such charges will be shown separately on the bill.
2.7 If for any reason, the matter does not proceed to a conclusion, we will charge you for work done and expenses incurred up to the point we cease acting. Should the matter proceed to a litigated conclusion or settlement and costs are awarded to the opposing party, Landlord Legal Assist Limited and/or any subcontracted or assigned party will not be responsible for any reimbursement and the client will be solely liable for payment of such costs.
2.8 For standard Landlord Legal Assist Limited services we will invoice our fees to you on the works being undertaken and will include all disbursements incurred at that time, that we will have paid on your behalf. Our payment terms are strictly 7 days from the date of the invoice. Where matters become complex or require additional works, we shall be entitled to deliver interim bills to you before the conclusion of your matter at our discretion. Such interim bills will be either interim bills on account which may not include all the costs incurred during the period covered by the bill and may be adjusted when we deliver our final bill, or interim bills which are self-contained and complete final bills for the period or work to which they relate.
2.9 All costs incurred and charged by the Landlord Legal Assist Limited throughout the course of instruction, should the matter proceed to litigation, will be determined by the court/Judge presiding over the claim should the matter proceed to a final Trial/Hearing or interim judgement. It is at the court’s discretion in its’ entirety to determine whether full costs, partial costs or no costs are awarded in respect of pre-litigation works undertaken by Landlord Legal Assist Limited and is principally determined by any contract or agreement that you hold with the Defendant. Landlord Legal Assist Limited will hold no responsibility should the court award only partial or no costs for any pre-litigated works invoiced.
3. Estimates
3.1 At appropriate intervals, or at any time at your reasonable request, we will provide estimates of the likely overall cost of the work we are doing for you. However, changing circumstances and facts which are unknown to us can affect the level of work required. Accordingly, such estimates are intended only as a general guide and should not be regarded as fixed quotes.
4. Payment of our Bills
4.1 Our standard payment method for Landlord Legal Assist Limited is by BACS transfer, bank transfer or by cheque. We are unable to accept cash. When sending any payment to us, please ensure that you quote your name and our reference. Continued failure to make payment may lead us to decline to act further on the matter(s) to which the invoice relates.
4.2 If we hold money which belongs to you (for example, money paid on account, or costs or damages received from another party) we may, after providing you with written notification of costs incurred, deduct the amount of our outstanding costs (including disbursements and any VAT payment required) from those funds before paying the balance to you.
4.4 All of our bills are payable within 7 days. In the event of a bill not being paid promptly we may decline to act further on the matter to which the bill relates and any other matter on which you have instructed us and deliver a final bill. You agree that we are not responsible for any loss resulting from such inactivity.
4.5 For matters which proceed to court proceedings, known as ‘contentious and/or litigated business’, should you choose to utilise our instructed affiliated panel of solicitors, you will enter into a separate agreement with them and agree to their fee structure. All bills and payments will be made to them directly as any instruction with Landlord Legal Assist Limited would cease on the referral on your instruction and on your acceptance of their terms and conditions.
4.6 We may charge interest on unpaid amounts at the rate of 3% above the base rate for the time being of Lloyds Bank or, at our discretion, at the rate applicable to Judgement debts. We reserve the right to claim interest under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. Interest on unpaid amounts shall take effect from one month of the date of delivery of our bill where the bill includes non-contentious work and from the date of delivery of our bill in relation to contentious work.
4.7 We shall be entitled to keep documents, money or other property belonging to you which has come into our possession in relation to any matter until we have been paid in full for all work carried out on your behalf. This is known as ‘exercising a lien’.
5. Money we hold on your behalf
5.1 In the event that we receive debtor payments on your behalf in the event that such a payment occurs then, in accordance with our policy on the payment of interest, where we hold monies on your behalf and interest is paid to us in relation to the same, we will pay a sum to you in lieu of the interest accrued unless that sum would be £20.00 or less. No tax will be deducted where we pay you a sum in lieu of interest and therefore you should disclose the amount received on your annual tax return.
5.2 The interest rate applicable will be that payable on the firm’s general client account which is an instant access account. The rate of interest may be lower that the rates of interest which may be available at other institutions and in relation to other deposit accounts or financial products. Under the European Savings Directive, if we pay interest to an individual or company outside the UK but within the EU, we will declare the interest paid to HMRC.
5.3 Although we believe that the monies held by our nominated bank is secure, we are not in a position to guarantee this and it is unlikely that Landlord Legal Assist Limited will have any liability to you in the event of the loss of your funds as a result of the failure of the bank holding our client account.
5.4 We are advised that funds held by us in our client account on behalf of our clients who are individuals or small businesses are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (“FSCS”). You should be aware that the scheme covers only a limited amount of your deposits with any authorised institution (£85,000.00). This limit applies per depositor per institution. If you have your own account with the bank in question then the FSCS would, in calculating the £85,000.00 limit, aggregate all monies held in your name together with all funds belonging to you held in our client account in that bank. In the event that it is necessary to make a claim under the FSCS we will be required to send your details to FSCS. If you do not consent to this, please let us know now so that we may mark our records accordingly.
6. Litigation (Court Action)
6.1 Landlord Legal Assist Limited is a paralegal law firm only not regulated by the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) and as such are unable to undertake any reserved activities as per the Legal Services Act (2007) including but not limited to the right to conduct litigation and the right to audience.
We confirm that we are affiliated with Robson & Co. Solicitors, and our in house legal team are supervised by SRA regulated solicitors at Robson & Co. Solicitors.
Once a matter has commenced litigation, should the need/circumstances require, as Robson & Co. Solicitors are our supervising firm, invoices in respect of works undertaken under the name of Robson & Co. Solicitors will be raised and payable to Robson & Co. Solicitors. Our fees, as quoted will apply unless otherwise stated prior to instructions.
6.2 On instructing Landlord Legal Assist Limited to commence litigation action on your behalf. We must adhere to the Money Laundering Regulations for any SRA regulated firm (as per Robson & Co. solicitors) and separate terms and conditions will require your signature, along with confirmation of identification.
6.3 We confirm that all litigation works will be undertaken in house at Landlord Legal Assist Limited under the supervision of Robson & Co. solicitors if so required, unless otherwise stated.
6.4 In the event that litigation commences and we are able to continue to undertake litigation in house, should circumstances permit and/or authority is granted by the court, we will continue to act on your behalf in house assisting you in acting as a litigant in person as a paralegal law firm. Upon which, all works will be undertaken in accordance with our fixed fee structure, unless agreed otherwise. In the event that we are assisting you in acting as a litigant in person in house, we will not be acting under the supervision of Robson & Co. Solicitors. These works will only be permitted as long as the works do not amount to any reserved activities as per the Legal Services Act (2007) including but not limited to the right to conduct litigation and the right to audience. This will be advised prior to instructions and will be at the client’s discretion as to whether to utilise this option.
7. Compliance Activities
7.1 To comply with the Money Laundering Regulations, which are designed to prevent the circulation of monies arising from serious crime, drug trafficking and terrorism, we need to obtain proof of your identity or, where we are instructed by a company, confirmation of the ownership of the company. We verify the identity of individual clients by undertaking an electronic check against your personal details. Similarly we undertake an electronic check regarding ownership for company clients. If our electronic checks are unsuccessful we may ask you to provide documentation confirming your identity and/or confirming company ownership. We will let you know if we require additional documentation. We may be unable to carry out your instructions if we are unable to verify your identity or, in some instances, the identities of your directors, shareholders and beneficial owners.
7.2 We are also required by anti-money laundering legislation to report to the appropriate authorities any knowledge or suspicion that a client’s funds (or any funds provided for or on behalf of a client) derive from the proceeds of crime. We may be obliged to make a report in circumstances where we cannot tell you that we have done so and may have to cease acting for you in those circumstances. You agree that we are not responsible for any adverse consequences for you that may arise as a result of our compliance with laws and regulations.
7.3 Occasionally our legal and professional duties require that we undertake compliance work while a matter is ongoing. An example of this would be work done to make sure we comply with money laundering legislation. Because of legal restrictions it may not be possible to inform you about these activities. We reserve the right to add a reasonable amount to our invoice in respect of all compliance work.
8. Bankruptcy and IVA
8.1 You must inform us immediately if you are, or have ever been declared bankrupt and if you are declared bankrupt while we are acting for you. The implications of bankruptcy are complex and the legal obligations imposed as a result are serious and it is vital that they are addressed.
8.2 If you have been declared bankrupt and Court proceedings become necessary, a legal claim cannot be issued in your name unless your Trustee in Bankruptcy has granted a Deed of Assignment allowing you to do this before the claim is issued. If no Deed of Assignment is granted then any proceedings issued in your name will be void and you could be responsible for all the legal costs of the Defendant.
8.3 If you are the subject of an Individual Voluntary Arrangement then this may also affect any claim and again you must inform us of that fact immediately.
9. Data Protection
9.1 To provide you with our services, we may need to record and maintain certain factual information on your personal circumstances which we may hold in hard copy and electronic form. In addition to the information that you provide, we may in the course of acting for you, receive information about you from third parties such as Companies House, your accountants, your associated companies, etc. We may use all information we hold about you, including sensitive personal information, for the purposes of providing our services to you and, where relevant, your insurer(s), and maintaining records about you that we must keep by law or under regulatory requirements.
9.2 You agree that we may communicate with you using electronic means, knowing that, although we will take appropriate measures to protect data, certain risks (including, for example, interception, unauthorized access and risk of viruses) are associated with such means.
9.3 From time to time we share information with other entities which directly or indirectly control, are controlled by, or are under direct or indirect common control with Landlord Legal Assist Limited or entities with which we are associated. We may also share information with 24 Hour Bailiffs Limited and Robson & Co. solicitors where this is necessary on your agreement. In doing so we will maintain confidentiality.
9.4 We may use the information that we hold about you, other than sensitive personal information, for our internal market research purposes and to send you information from time to time on services provided by Landlord Legal Assist Limited which we think may interest you. If you do not want us to send information to you in relation to Landlord Legal Assist Limited’s other services then please contact the person in charge of your matter and let them know.
9.5 We do not pass any information about our clients to third parties for commercial exploitation. We pass client information to third parties only where it may be necessary or beneficial in carrying out the work for which you have instructed us or where we have to disclose information to third parties because of our legal or regulatory obligations or to prevent fraud or money laundering. By way of example, documentation and information containing your personal details (such as your name, address and details of your claim) may, on occasions, have to be sent to the person you are taking against, their lawyer or their insurer. This may take place before or after you decide to issue court proceedings, but any such action is taken in accordance with our standard practices and protocols. We may pass relevant information to our insurers if we are concerned that our work for you may have given rise to a possible liability to you on our part.
9.6 Any third party to whom we disclose information about you will be under an obligation to keep your information secure and not to use it for any other purpose than that for which it was disclosed. We will always seek your instructions prior to any third party disclosure of your details.
9.7 Where you are a trustee or are acting as a representative, attorney, litigation friend (or are acting in an equivalent representative capacity) of another person, you agree to advise that person that their personal information will be dealt with on these terms, as if each reference to “you” or “your” in this section includes a reference to that person. Unless you inform us otherwise, by disclosing any personal information to us about a person you are representing, we will assume that you have obtained consent to enable the use of such information on these terms.
9.8 Under the Data Protection Act 1998, you are entitled (on payment of a fee and subject to some exceptions) to a copy of the information we hold about you. If you would like to obtain this information please contact the data protection compliance officer in writing stating what personal information you wish to access.
Storage of papers and documents
10.1 Our usual practice is to keep your file relating to a matter for six years following the date of the final bill we send to you for the relevant work, after which it may be destroyed. The file may be stored as a paper copy or electronically. If after the conclusion of this matter we produce or make copies of anything on the file for you, we may make a charge for this based on time spent.
Equality and diversity
11.1 We are committed to promoting equality and diversity in all our dealings with clients, third parties and employees. We are happy to make reasonable adjustments to the service we provide to assist clients and visitors with a disability. Please ask the person dealing with your matter if we can help in this way.

14.2 Our advice is confidential to you and Landlord Legal Assist Limited shall not be responsible if you make it available to third parties. Advice we give may be covered by legal professional privilege and if you show it to others it may cease to be privileged, and therefore become disclosable to other parties to a dispute.
14.3 No person who is not a party to the agreement embodied in these standard terms and conditions and the relative covering letter(s) shall, in the absence of express provision to the contrary, have any right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any of its terms, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available other than under that Act.
14.4 You shall not bring any claim against any of our directors, employees or consultants in his or her personal capacity in connection with the advice we give you save in circumstances of fraud by a member, employee or consultant. We shall not seek to avoid any liability to you on the grounds that the relevant claim should be brought against one or more of our members, employees or consultants and not Landlord Legal Assist Limited.
14.5 Landlord Legal Assist Limited shall not be liable for any delay in performing or failure to perform any of our obligations to you if such delay or failure results from events or circumstances outside our control, including, without limitation, transport or communications failure; the consequences of a terrorist attack; failure of our computer systems; or damage to our premises or storage facilities by explosion, fire, corrosion, flood, natural disaster, malicious or negligent act or accident.
14.6 In connection with these instructions Landlord Legal Assist Limited shall not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss or damage (including loss of profits) suffered by you or any other person.
14.7 Where you agree to a limit being imposed on the liability of any other professional or financial advisers instructed by you in relation to this matter for loss or damage resulting from the performance of or failure to perform their respective duties, the liability of Landlord Legal Assist Limited and/or any of its directors will not in any event exceed what it would have been had the liability of such other advisers not been so limited and had the contribution of all such advisers, but for such limitation, been proportionate to their respective responsibilities for such loss or damage.
14.8 The liability of Landlord Legal Assist Limited to you shall be reduced to take into account any contributory negligence on your part.
14.9 Paragraphs 14.1 to 14.5 (inclusive) above shall not apply in relation to any liability to you we may incur arising from your instructions in this matter if these terms of business constitute a contentious business agreement (as defined in section 59 Solicitors Act 1974). The agreement of which these standard terms and conditions form part shall not be a contentious business agreement unless we have agreed this with you in writing.
14.10 Our liability shall not be limited by anything in paragraphs 14.1 to 14.5 (inclusive) (or by any limitation on our liability set out in any of the documents referred to in paragraph 16.1 below) in relation to death or personal injury or in circumstances of fraud or reckless disregard of professional obligations.
Termination
15.1 You may terminate your instructions to us at any time by notice in writing.
15.2 We may decide to stop acting for you only with good reason, for example if you fail to pay your bills, if you fail to give us adequate instructions to enable us to advise you, if a conflict of interests arises which prevents us from continuing to act, or if you fail to provide any evidence of identity we have requested. If you are a body corporate, partnership or unincorporated association we may stop acting for you if you: cease or threaten to cease carrying on business; suspend making payments on any of your debts or announce an intention to do so; are or are deemed for the purposes of any law to be, unable to pay your debts as they fall due or insolvent; enter into or propose any composition, assignment or arrangement with your creditors generally; take any step or suffer any step to be taken in relation to your winding-up, dissolution, administration (whether out of court or otherwise) or reorganisation (by way of voluntary arrangement, scheme of arrangement or otherwise); have a liquidator, trustee in bankruptcy, judicial custodian, compulsory manager, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator or similar officer appointed (in each case, whether out of court or otherwise) in respect of you or any of your assets; have any security over any of your assets enforced; or any analogous procedure or step is taken in any jurisdiction.
