Sonia advises private individuals and commercial landlords on variety of property issues, including breaches of tenancy, repairing obligations, and rent arrears.

Her expertise spans assisting landlords with recovering possession of their properties, advising social housing landlords on obtaining anti-social behaviour injunctions against problem tenants, obtaining money judgments against tenants to deal with any rent arrears, drafting and issuing possession claims, and advising landlords and tenants on statutory lease renewals and enfranchisement claims.
