This housing advice booklet explains what you may be able to do if your landlord or someone acting on her/his behalf is harassing you, or tries to evict you without following the correct procedure.

Know your rights: Harassment and illegal eviction are serious criminal offences. The fact that a landlord owns your home does not give them, or anyone acting on their behalf, a right to take away your rights.
