Private Tenants: Helping you to keep your home and where to get advice

We have sent you this leaflet because your landlord must by law tell us when they take you to court for eviction. Your home is at risk. Your landlord wants to recover possession of your property. We want to help you keep your home if possible. This leaflet advises you how best to deal with your situation.
