0151 665 0320Rated 5.0 by Our Clients: Real Tenancy Deposit Wins from Cook Legal
Tenancy deposit claims are at the heart of what we do, and our clients consistently rate that work 5.0 out of 5. When you’re chasing a landlord who ignored the rules and kept money you’re owed, you want a team that has done it before and will keep you in the loop the whole way. We’re proud that, on Google and on the independent review platform ReviewSolicitors, Cook Legal holds a 5.0 out of 5 rating, and the themes that come up again and again say a lot about how we work.
If your landlord failed to protect your deposit in a government-backed scheme, you may be entitled to recover the deposit itself plus compensation. That is exactly the kind of result our tenancy deposit claims team delivers, and the reviews below show what that looks like in practice for real tenants.
What our clients tell us matters most
Three things come through in review after review. The first is clear communication: clients repeatedly mention that we break down the legal jargon so they actually understand what is happening with their case. The second is being kept updated, with regular contact rather than being left wondering. The third is results, including recovering not just the original deposit but the additional compensation tenants are entitled to when a landlord fails to protect it.
“I’d recommend Shannon to anyone who needs help and support, particularly in a case which involved a rental tenancy deposit not being placed in an approved scheme. Shannon was able to recover my initial deposit and the added costs I was entitled to.”
— Laura P, Google review
“I had an excellent experience working with this lawyer. From the very beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my case. Their attention to detail and strategic approach made a stressful situation much easier to manage.”
— David B, Google review
The kind of cases we win
A typical example: a tenant whose landlord never placed their deposit in an approved scheme. These tenancy deposit claims can take time and persistence, but our team sees them through to the end, securing the initial deposit back along with the compensation the law allows. Several clients have praised us for staying with them through long, hard-fought claims, including those that ran for a considerable time before a successful result.
Every case is different, but the pattern is familiar. A deposit was taken at the start of a tenancy, it was never protected in one of the three government-backed schemes within the required time, and the tenant only discovers the breach later. Because the rules are strict, that single failure can open the door to a claim worth far more than the original deposit alone.
