From start to finish FDM did pretty much everything to manage my housing disrepair claim. Today my housing association settled out of court and have agreed to get the work done which we patiently wait... See more

I can't recommend FDM Solicitors…

I can't recommend FDM Solicitors enough. Frida managed my case with absolute profesionalism. Explaining the process every step of the way. In utter desparation I turned to FDM after living with black mold for over 3 years. Sanctuary Housing had completely ignored the problem. Once Frida was on the case, I was bombarded by workmen. And received compensation. Thank you Frida I'd recommend you to anyone facing housing disrepair. Best wishes. Tracey.

FDM 5 stars to all the team

Katie Morgan was an absolute star after a lot of shocking work from the Housing Association over amount of years as a case handler Katie was consistently keeping us updated with new developments and getting the Housing Association to do the work to rectify damages made by them and small compensation. FDM Solicitors team when she was not available was just as professional and clear when speaking to them they are always happy to help. If you are having any issues as a tenant Housing or council I would highly recommend this company.

If your case is not worth lots of money, they will just leave you aside & not communicate

Firstly they harassed me to make the claim on what’s app messages.
Then when I did, they sent a surveyor to my home, I work full time so I had to ask a family member to wait in, I specifically requested that the surveyor only checks my bathroom which is the issue I was having with my social housing landlord & the only reason I went legal is because how long I was being left my the council.
The surveyor went in to my bedrooms, all around my home which I specifically told them I didn’t want to happen, clearly just solicitors looking for more potential money for themselves to try claim on.
Then once they contacted the council, they have hardly communicated with at all, the social housing landlord refused to discuss the repairs as it is legal and told me to contact the solicitor. Contact these guys at FDM & they don’t bother getting back to you. The surveyor only reported what they can make money off, they will tell you they’ll help you get everything sorted, that’s a lie. They couldn’t make money off my claim which is fine by me, I just want the repairs doing but now I’m even worse off because the landlord wont communicate with me, only the legal representative which can’t be bothered to phone the client or communicate with, unless there’s big ££ involved!

Wouldn’t recommend, not had a good service at all.

They have been very helpful

They have been very helpful I don’t remember his name but he’s been very helpful with my understanding of my case aswell as Lucy in taking on my case. They have made me feel so relaxed and reassured me with everything.

Sign up process was super easy

Sign up process was super easy, and straight forward, our council have been awful so this has taken the pressure off massively. Would also like to thank Niamh O'Connor for being so helpful.
