Welcome to the Powell Forster website


We are solicitors based in the Eurolink Centre in Brixton, London SW2 specialising in court and tribunal litigation in the following areas:

  • service charge & leaseholder disputes (often before the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal);
  • housing & property disputes (e.g. tenant disrepair claims in the county court);
  • personal injury/ accident compensation claims; and 
  • professional negligence claims.

We only act for home owners, leaseholders and tenants, and for people who have been injured in accidents or have suffered loss as a result of negligent professional advice. We also offer cheap and effective mediation services for legal, community and other disputes. 

We offer:

  • Disabled access
  • Interpreters
  • Free assessment of personal injury claims
  • Fixed fee interviews for other cases
  • "No win, no fee"
