Katie Brown chairs the social welfare and public law team at TV Edwards Solicitors LLP, which has broad-ranging expertise across possession proceedings involving allegations of anti-social behaviour, rent arrears, and sub-letting, disrepair mandates, and homelessness cases. The practice benefits from the firm’s wider knowledge of Court of Protection matters and community care, which are often overlapping with social housing cases.
