PIM's member, won his day in court - but at what cost?

17th Dec 2014

Roger Spencer, a PIM's member, won his day in court and created legal history that benefits  all landlords and wants to share his tale as a warning to others. Read Rogers full story click here
 
  • Roger said:"I have decided to tell my side of the story as a warning to all landlords to be careful on Section 21 notices and make sure that all the information is correct for the court proceedings, especially the date.
  • "I never thought that I would end up having to face the probability of going to Supreme Court and not only being taken on by solicitors, that were only interested in racking up fees, but also by Shelter who supported their case."
  • The Section 21 contained a "catch all" savings clause and the tenant's solicitor's had even cited this as one of their 39 points that was being appealed.
