About Us

At HCLA, we are committed to ensuring that social housing tenants live in safe, healthy, and legally compliant homes. Inspired by the story of Awaab Ishak, whose tragic death revealed the devastating consequences of neglected housing conditions, we work tirelessly to hold councils and housing associations accountable, so no tenant suffers unnecessarily.

We specialise in representing tenants under Awaab’s Law, taking landlords and councils to court to secure both essential repairs and thousands of pounds in compensation. Our service operates on a no win, no fee basis, ensuring that every tenant can access justice without financial risk.

From your first enquiry, we provide clear guidance and a structured process. Initial legal advice is usually delivered within 24–48 hours, assessments and case preparation typically take 3–5 days, and most cases see formal action or resolution within 5–10 days. We aim to resolve matters efficiently while keeping you informed at every stage.

We understand the stress, frustration, and worry that come with living in substandard housing. That’s why we are fully on your side, backing tenants with professional, empathetic support from start to finish. At HCLA, we don’t just pursue legal cases—we fight for the dignity, safety, and rights of every tenant, ensuring your voice is heard and your home meets the standards you deserve.
