She has worked in housing and tenancy law ever since.
With over 8 years’ experience advising clients in both the Social and Private Housing sectors, Kirstie manages a wide variety of cases and handles a range of both contentious and non- contentious housing management issues, including repossession (eviction), succession and anti-social behaviour.
