Help you can get
A mediation service could be quicker and cheaper than going to the tribunal. Mediation is when an independent and impartial person discusses a problem with both parties to try to find a solution.
You can contact Citizens Advice or the Leasehold Advisory Service for free legal advice. You can also find a lawyer.
Call or email the tribunal if you have any questions about the process. The tribunal cannot give you legal advice.
