Taylor Lloyd Law provides end-to-end possession support for landlords and letting agents across England and Wales. From the first notice through to debt recovery, we cover every stage.
We handle Section 8 possession notices across all available grounds — rent arrears, persistent non-payment, anti-social behaviour, breach of tenancy, and every new ground introduced under the Renters' Rights Act 2026.
We identify the correct ground for your situation, advise on the applicable notice period, and ensure every element is correctly in order before the notice is served. Using the wrong ground or the wrong notice period can invalidate your entire claim — we make sure that does not happen.
When a tenant fails to vacate following a Section 8 notice, the next step is making an application to the court for a possession order. This is where many landlords make costly procedural errors — we ensure every element is correctly prepared before submission.
We guide you step by step through the claims process — from preparing your supporting documentation and rent schedule to providing clear written instructions for submitting and attending court. You make the decisions and sign the documents; we make sure everything is properly in order.
Obtaining a possession order is not always the end of the process. If the tenant remains in the property after the order, the next step is a warrant of possession — which allows the court's enforcement officers to attend the property and physically remove the tenant.
We advise on the correct process for applying for a warrant, the options available depending on your circumstances, and what to expect on the day of enforcement. Where speed is essential, we also advise on transferring enforcement to the High Court.
Once possession is obtained, outstanding rent arrears do not have to be written off. There are several legal routes available to recover unpaid rent from a former tenant, and the right approach depends on the tenant's circumstances and assets.
We advise on each available recovery method, help you assess the realistic prospects of recovery, and guide you through whichever route is most appropriate for your situation. Debt recovery can proceed alongside or after possession proceedings.
We work with both independent letting agents and large national agencies, providing dedicated possession and eviction support across multi-landlord portfolios. If you manage a high volume of properties and need a reliable, experienced partner for possession cases, we deliver consistent support at scale.
Our portfolio support covers every stage of proceedings — from initial notice review through to enforcement — across your entire caseload and across all of your landlord clients simultaneously.
The Renters' Rights Act 2026 came into force on 1 May 2026 and has fundamentally changed the possession landscape. If you have live cases, existing Section 8 notices, or ongoing proceedings, it is critical that they are reviewed for compliance with the new framework.
We review live cases and advise on the impact of the new Act on your current proceedings — including whether existing notices remain valid, which grounds now apply, and whether PRS Database registration is in place ahead of the September 2026 deadline.
