Claims for unlawful eviction and associated harassment can be complex
and often require careful management, particularly in the early stages.
Urgent relief is often necessary to ensure a client is accommodated and
his or her belongings safeguarded.
The second edition of this practical guide is aimed at lawyers and
lay-persons alike and provides a detailed but concise guide to managing
litigation in this highly specialised field. This edition includes
updates on the interrelationship between the covenants for quiet
enjoyment and non-derogation from grant as well as Rent Repayment Orders
and Banning Orders; the calculation of general damages for trespass in
the light of Smith v Khan; the procedure for claims, injunctions and
committal proceedings; and the progress of the review of damages-based
agreements.
