Martin regularly acts for private and social landlords in possession claims, warrant suspensions, access and anti‑social behaviour injunctions, closure orders, contempt proceedings, trespass, disrepair, and EPA prosecutions. He has also acted for local authorities in council tax and business rates matters before the Magistrates’ Court and Valuation Tribunal.

Recent work includes:

London Borough of Lewisham v L — secured dismissal of a last‑minute application to suspend a warrant, enabling the eviction to proceed.

K v I & K v M — secured possession of rooms let in a HMO, facilitating sale of the property by estate beneficiaries.

London Borough of Southwark v J – successfully persuaded a deputy district judge in the magistrates’ court that a pest infestation coupled with a refusal of access constituted a nuisance, sufficient to justify the grant of a full closure order.
