On 26^th February 2019 Mediatelegal were the sole sponsor of the first ever Housing Disrepair Conference put on by Liverpool Law Society. To say the event was a popular one is an understatement. Not only was it a sell-out, a larger venue was needed, and I believe there is already a waiting list for a second conference!

With a fabulous panel, and over 90 delegates, it was a great opportunity for us to showcase our bespoke Housing Disrepair mediation scheme. Every delegate received details of our scheme in the documents supplied at the conference, and we had a chance to chat with many solicitors working in housing disrepair throughout the day.

Our brief talk to the room was extremely useful for us and was made that little bit easier by seeing several solicitors in the audience who have already successfully used our mediation service to resolve housing disrepair cases.

Mediatelegal Housing Disrepair Scheme

We have developed a bespoke mediation service specifically with the protocol and the characteristics of this type of case in mind. The service combines low cost mediation options with experienced mediators, and the mediations can be carried out by telephone or in-person. You can find more information here.

We have received a number of enquiries about our Housing Disrepair Conference and we have a few exciting meetings in the diary – all as a result of our presence at the conference.

We also held the obligatory raffle, and we are pleased to confirm the following winners:-

• Sian Evans (Weightmans) – a complimentary 4 ball at Formby Hall Golf Club
• Louise Murphy (Knox Ellis) – a bottle of Liverpool Gin

Congratulations to both winners. We’ve made contact with both to share the good news.

Finally, thank you to everyone at Liverpool Law Society, and thank you to all of the delegates and speakers who were part of such a great event. We’re co-sponsoring the annual Costs Conference and we’re really looking forward to it.
