Dorota has over 20 years' experience in the residential property sector having started her housing career at Birmingham County Council.
Specialising in all aspects of issues that may face a residential landlord, Dorota advises registered providers in relation to anti-social behaviour, disrepair claims, illegal evictions, homelessness issues, and general tenancy matters ranging from illegal occupiers to hoarders and failed successions.

She regularly represents clients in the County Courts in applications for injunctions and possessions. She has advised extensively on the drafting of tenancy agreements and has reviewed registered providers' policies and procedures.
Dorota also speaks and trains regularly on all aspects of housing management issues both internally and externally such as at CIH events.
