Defined legal service
Housing privatisation and service accommodation
Assessing housing status, occupancy documents and transitional rules before preparing an application or challenging a refusal.
The problem you need to resolve
- you occupy public housing and need an eligibility assessment
- service-housing status or an official refusal needs review
What you receive
- A written assessment of documents, risks and next steps
- The application, agreement or other document agreed for this stage
What we do
- review the questionnaire, deadlines and agreed document list
- separate verified facts from assumptions and define the legal objective
- identify the owner and housing fund
- check occupation and allocation records
- apply the 2026 reform and transitional provisions by date
- prepare the agreed application or challenge
What we need from you
- allocation order and tenancy documents
- household and occupancy records
- service-status decisions
- applications and replies
- answer focused follow-up questions and verify the factual information
- do not send a full set of sensitive documents before the conflict-of-interest check and agreement of a protected channel
Fees
- Fees depend on the facts and scope of support. After a short discussion, we explain what the work includes and its cost. Fees are agreed before work begins.
- A possible first stage is a written action plan: review of agreed documents, legal assessment, next steps, deadlines, risks and alternatives.
- Additional objectives, extensive materials and foreign-language documents are discussed separately.
- Court fees and other mandatory payments are separate from the lawyer's fee. Notarial, translation, valuation and expert costs are also agreed separately.
What may change the route
- objections or new claims from another party
- missing, inconsistent or newly received documents
- the need for valuation, expert evidence, a notarial or registration step
- existing court or enforcement proceedings, a missed or imminent deadline
- long occupation alone does not confer eligibility
- the assessment may establish that privatisation is unavailable
When this service is not suitable
- long occupation alone does not confer eligibility
- the assessment may establish that privatisation is unavailable
How we report progress
- we agree the communication channel before work begins
- we report receipt of materials, completion of the assessment, document readiness and the next required action
- where new facts or extra work arise, we first explain the effect on timing and fees and ask for your approval

Frequently asked questions
Did the 2026 reform end all privatisation immediately?
Law No. 4751-IX postpones the provision repealing the privatisation law until one year after martial law ends. The relevant date and housing regime must be checked.
Can service housing be privatised?
Article 2 of Law No. 2482-XII generally excludes designated service apartments; status and any special grounds require review.
Who changes the status?
The competent authority or court decides; the lawyer prepares and supports the agreed legal steps.
