Understanding Eviction Service Prices
Every landlord’s situation is different. Some cases can be resolved by serving the correct notice, while others may require court proceedings, possession hearings, or enforcement action.
As a result, tenant eviction costs can vary depending on the complexity of the matter and the level of work required.
Where court proceedings are necessary, additional disbursements such as court fees, advocate fees, and enforcement costs may also apply.
Section 8 Notice Cost
A Section 8 notice is often the first step when seeking possession due to rent arrears or other tenancy breaches.
The section 8 notice cost will depend on the grounds being relied upon and the work required to review the tenancy, prepare the notice, and ensure it is served correctly.
Serving the correct notice at the outset can help avoid delays and additional costs later in the process.
Court Eviction Fees And Possession Proceedings
Where a tenant does not leave after a notice expires, court proceedings may become necessary.
Court eviction fees will typically depend on the nature of the claim, whether the matter is defended, and the amount of preparation required.
Many landlords also ask about possession order cost and hearing expenses. These costs can vary depending on the circumstances of the case and whether additional applications or hearings are required.
Fixed Fee Eviction Service
Where possible, we aim to provide clear fixed-fee pricing for many of our services so landlords can budget effectively and understand the likely costs involved.
Our team regularly assists landlords throughout England with:
• Section 8 notices.
• Possession claims.
• Rent arrears matters.
• Court proceedings.
• Enforcement action.
• Debt recovery.
Affordable Eviction Solicitor Services
We understand that landlords dealing with rent arrears and possession issues are often already facing financial losses.
Our aim is to provide practical and affordable eviction solicitor services while ensuring landlords receive clear advice and support throughout the process.
*The review fee is only chargeable in the event you do not instruct to serve a notice or if upon review it becomes apparent that we will not be able to serve a notice on your behalf for example if you have breach any housing laws preventing you from doing so.
**Subject to the matter not being complex
All prices are inclusive of VAT but exclude court fees
