Shula Rich, a pioneer in Leasehold Management Education & Right to Manage Consultancy
"I met with Shula on two occasions the advice she gave was amazing and directly led to my successfully taking my landlord to court and winning a large refund of service charge. I would highly recommend Shula and the service she provides"
Lucy,"Shula is a font of knowledge on all things lease related, she was utterly brilliant at advising me and I could not recommend her highly enough."
Sandy O'Neill,"Having had many issues with our lease over many years it was very refreshing to chat to Shula Rich. She offered the best, most concise advice we have ever been given regarding our situation. The membership fee for the Leaseadvice.org is small, but it will be the best money you have ever spent if you're looking for legal advice and general support regarding the many unfair issues faced by leaseholders. Shula is now following our case, and we look forward to updating her with our progress."
JM"Having failed in a bid to secure Right to Manage for our block of flats using a local property specialist, we turned to Shula following numerous recommendations from the National Leasehold Campaign group on Facebook. Utilising Shula's services we were able to achieve RTM second time round, quickly and without fuss, and most importantly without any comeback from the freeholder. Shula has advised us ever since and what I particularly like about her is that she will assist in any way she can long after RTM has been achieved. Her communication is fast and concise, and always on point, and we are very fortunate to have her on board given her expertise and knowledge. Thank you, Shula."
Alex Mitchell"Setting up an RTM in our block of 18 flats was the best move we ever made. We now decide what work needs to be done and how we want to spend our money. Shula was fundamental in helping us achieve the RTM. Her knowledge in all aspects is incredible. There is a commercial section of the building which could have been a stumbling block, but thanks to Shula keeping us up to date with the changing laws, we achieved the RTM without the commercial being challenged. She also helped us reduce the solicitors' fees by half. She made us feel fully supported throughout the whole process and continues to help us today. We would by all means recommend Shula's expertise."
Marisa Savoia"At Powerhouse RTM Ltd we found Shula just THE most helpful person to work with when setting up our company. We were all novices and she advised us in a clear and comprehensive manner throughout the entire process from setting up the company right through to finalising the RTM takeover. We would all recommend her services and a trustworthy, knowledgeable and friendly expert."
"Lease Advice UK - Three years ago we worked with Shula Rich and successfully gained the control of a block of 36 flats via the Right To Manage process in October 2022. Her knowledge and approach to the process of RTM was brilliant and her gift of sharing her knowledge of leasehold property was a blessing for two guys who took the plunge, with 60% of the residents, not always understanding what we were getting ourselves into. We still contact Shula every now and then, particularly when we need help or advice on various matters and she is always happy to help."
Geoff Symonds"We are eternally grateful to Shula for sorting out our RTM so swiftly and painlessly. It will transform our situation moving forwards. Thanks for everything."
Suzie Sawyer"Clear and simple advice. Shula was a great help when I was worried about my rights. Thank you."
Mrs S Jackson,"Shula speaks with all the openness and helpfulness which might be expected if I was asking about a family matter from a close family member. So refreshing, after years of robotic, evasive or buck-passing responses, to find someone, Shula, who immediately clicks onto the wavelength on which I am transmitting, and sends her clear message back along that same wavelength."
Ray Beecroft,"Brighton & Hove Leaseholders Association is a busy and helpful advice group for people in need of help at an affordable annual charge. A solicitor is present at their monthly sessions, who provide advice to those with particular landlord / renting / flat ownership issues. I had a problem with my own solicitor and Shula Rich and her solicitors were extremely helpful in pointing me in the right direction and in advising me on what to do about it. Highly recommended."
PF,"At last I found someone who could help with my leasehold issue face to face. I have been looking on line for some time for leasehold advice and discovered there was a drop-in service in my home town. I visited the Brighton Hove and district leaseholders. Received wonderful and straightforward advice. Shula Rich was wonderful and matter of fact. i felt so much better after leaving the drop-in."
FR,"Wonderful! Shula is extremely knowledgeable, deeply respectful and very caring. She has a strong sense of justice. Very encouraging and supportive and well able to guide you through the legalese."
Odette Fitzgerald,"Incredibly helpful – thank you."
Gordon Speers,"I initially met Shula when I went on… one of her Block Management courses about 5 years ago, she is a font of knowledge when it comes to anything leasehold and will always come back to you with a reply if you email her a question. I highly recommend her and her company and courses."
Karen Loy,"We came to one of Shula’s drop-in clinics after almost a year of negotiating with our Freeholder on our own. Within a half-hour conversation Shula had made clear what had previously been somewhat bewildering. Her advice has been invaluable."
Fraser McQuade,"Do not hesitate – see Shula!! We cannot thank Shula enough! We went to her free, end-of-month drop-in Lease Clinic. She cut straight to the chase and provided us with the information and confidence to explain to our landlord that he was not entitled to do what he was trying to do, which led him to come to an agreement that was acceptable to us. We would not have been able to do this without Shula. And she does it with such understanding and good humour!"
John,"Shula has been an amazing help through out the process on gaining ‘The right to Manage’. I met Shula through a free drop in session, where she gave honest and encouraging advise and has been brilliant ever since in guiding our six flats over the mountain of facing a management company. She really did make the process easy and accessible. THANK YOU SHULA."
