Court papers for the accelerated possession procedure

The word accelerated means accelerated for an order without a hearing and not 'fast'

​

Our role is best described as 'assisting,' where the quality of assisting matters. Our ethos is to go the extra mile for you. You are a litigant in person in this process, and we are your guardians for avoiding the wrong choice by doing the proper paperwork and doing it right. We desire that you get a possession order and your property back.

​

England 

​

The deregulation act, which applies to England, only changed the overall 'detail' of the process, and we think for the better. Before, it was a system that allowed open questions on important matters that were not required to be filed, which resulted in The Judge ordering a hearing or asking for specific documents.

 

Not now. All relevant documents are included, and the 20-page-long court paper allows no unanswered questions. Our landlord clients consistently have the possession order arrive in the post the first time as it should. Imagine a judge tick-boxing the court papers, looking for a reason to fail the application; knowing this, we will not give them a reason for it to fail. 

​

We also create court papers when you or the agent serve the notice. We would rely on the evidence you could provide to show that the deregulation act documents E.P.C latest How-to-rent guide and relevant gas safety certificates were given prior to the notice. 

​

Pre-covid, it was stacking up over time, but things are now improving.

​

Court papers for the section 8.

​

The court papers for Section 8 can be sent to the court after the expiry of the 14-day notice. You might think that because it is a fourteen-day notice, the whole process would be a lot quicker. No, it is not, and the maximum time under the rules is 8 weeks to get to a hearing, but covid has shifted the need to abide by the rule’s in favour of fitting them in as soon as possible. So, the section 8 process is now slower than the section 21, but you might like to review why we prefer section 21.
