While every claim is different, here’s what you can expect when you instruct Burys Solicitors:
1. Initial assessment – We review your tenancy documents and the details of your case to confirm whether you have a valid claim and the level of compensation you could seek.
2. Building your case – We prepare a robust claim against your landlord, identifying any breaches of the deposit rules and highlighting supporting evidence.
3. Formal submission & negotiation – We contact your landlord (or their legal representatives) with a formal claim, setting clear deadlines for a response and negotiating for the best possible settlement.
4. Resolution & payment – Once an agreement is reached or a court order is obtained, we arrange for your payment to be made – often within 2-3 weeks.
Our role is to protect your legal rights and navigate any challenges or defences your landlord may raise, giving you the best chance of securing your deposit and compensation without unnecessary delays.
Can your landlord make any deductions from the deposit?
We will review any potential deductions with you at every step of the way. There are certain deductions that your landlord cannot apply.
If you owe rent, or there is any damage caused to the property or belongings, then your landlord may apply deductions to your deposit.
Your landlord cannot apply deductions for general wear and tear or damage to the property because your landlord has failed to complete prompt repair works.
We will challenge your landlord for over unfair, or unreasonable, deductions from your deposit.
