Housing Law News
Dear Reader,
Housing Law Bulletin is now on its Easter break – but that does not mean that for the next couple of weeks you need to miss out on any news about housing law and practice.
For daily housing law news and updates from the editor of this Bulletin (Jan Luba QC) you can follow him on Twitter @JanLubaQC
The next monthly round-up Recent Developments in Housing Law (written by Jan Luba QC and Nic Madge) will be published shortly in the April Issue of Legal Action magazine. LAG subscribers need not wait for the hard copy to get round the office because the whole content is now published here online.
If you want to find something that you read about in a previous edition of Housing Law Bulletin don’t forget that all 350 issues are maintained in our online archive. To access that, click here.
Alternatively, use the “search” button on our website to search through that collection. Just click here.
If it is a legal case summary you are after, don’t forget that fuller digests of most of the cases noted each week in this Bulletin appear in an online, indexed and searchable database edited by Jan Luba QC and called the Case Law Digest. For details of that service, click here.
If you are looking for the “hard law” on housing, why not browse our free online collection of Housing Law resources. Just click here.
And, of course, you are always welcome to meet members of the Garden Court Housing Law Team through our “day jobs” or at many of the Housing Law Events mentioned below.

If you have views about how we can improve the regular weekly Bulletin, or make it more relevant to your work, please share them with us. Drop a quick email to bulletins@gclaw.co.uk
And don’t forget – there is also a regular stream of legal news available on Twitter from Garden Court Chambers itself. To access this, please follow @gardencourtlaw
