Liam Kreibich

What I do

I joined the firm in September 2016 after working in the Legal Aid sector for eight years. I completed the part-time Legal Practice Course at Nottingham Trent University whilst working for Direct Help & Advice (formerly Derbyshire Housing Aid) and qualified as a Solicitor in February 2012.

I am part of the Dispute Resolution department and specialise in landlord and tenant matters. I have a wealth of experience in all aspects of housing law. I also deal with a wide range of contractual and tortious disputes, as well as defending debt recovery matters.

I think my team appreciate the regular coffee and tea rounds I make… as well as my dry wit, sarcasm and sparkling personality, of course.

Outside the office, I am kept busy/tired by my young family though I try to keep my fitness levels up by playing football every week. I also enjoy playing the piano whenever I can.

I contacted Smith Partnership regarding landlord advice. Liam was fantastic right from the beginning. He responded to my emails and messages quickly and gave clear and concise advice. He is always professional, friendly and clear about the law. He has provided clear guidance and options and enabled me to make informed decisions based on sound advice. I am really pleased to have Liam representing my case. Many thanks.

This is a short email to thank you for the service and advice you have given me. I was at a loss as to how I was going to get my tenant to leave my property, which I had been trying to do since the beginning of May 2018. After speaking to you on the phone, you explained everything to me about how the process works and so I instructed you to act on my behalf. I must say this was the best thing I could have done. You did everything you said you would, kept me in the loop and acted very professionally throughout. You acted on everything that needed to be on the day it needed to be done and thanks to you my tenant has now gone and I have my property back. So many thanks for all your help and if in the future I have any other issues I will be calling you sooner rather than later.

We have been working with Liam for several months now, his advice has been invaluable to solving some difficult cases. We would recommend Liam to any agency or landlord.

This [evicting a tenant] was an extremely stressful time for me given my lack of understanding of the law and what I was expected to do. Liam Kreibich explained the processes and timings to me in plain English, written and spoken. Liam’s quick responses to emails and telephone messages were exceptional. Liam did everything, with almost no time or effort from me! The best part was that I could completely trust him to represent me professionally to other organisations. I am very thankful that I chose Smith Partnership and have used their services again since. Again, I got an impeccable service from Marissa Layton on another matter. 100% satisfied with the services received.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy

As new landlords, this was the first occasion when we required legal advice to resolve a difficult issue with a tenant.

We were recommended to use Liam at Smith Partnership. Liam’s professional advice was delivered in a timely and efficient manner.

But perhaps more importantly to us, was that Liam appreciated our lack of experience in this area and was sympathetic to our situation. Liam often provided us with more than a pure legal service, with the provision of friendly and helpful advice on non-legal aspects of the issue.

The fees were at a reasonable level and we have no hesitation in recommending Liam and Smith Partnership to others.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy

Liam, I can only say a great big thank you for all you have done. In the time you were dealing with the case, not once did you let things slip and I am sure it was because of your persistence we finally got closure. Once again, very many thanks.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy

Liam, I would like to thank you for your service and professionalism throughout the handling of my case.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy

Having used the services of The Smith Partnership and in particular Liam Kreibich for a number of years, Liam’s professional approach and advice when dealing with complex and challenging tenancy related cases has been invaluable.

Liam has a wealth of knowledge and understanding of tenancy law and has always provided both us as Letting Agents and our clients with sound advice, guidance and support.

We have always received excellent service and prompt responses from Liam relating to a number of cases over the years. Given the constant changes in legislation and complexities that surround tenancies, I can fully recommend appointing Liam to ensure your investment and interests are protected accordingly.

Having dealt with several solicitors over the years, I was so impressed with Liam Kreibich at Smith Partnership due to his personable and professional approach. From the outset he was reassuring, he always made time for me and his advice was extremely precise. I highly recommend him.

Liam helped us to issue a Section 21 eviction notice to our tenants. He was very professional and always available if we had any questions. He was calm and friendly and explained the process clearly to us. The fees were very reasonable. We would use him again if we ever end up in this situation again.

We asked Liam to help us with a Section 21 eviction notice as we had never done it before. Throughout the six months it took for the tenants to leave, Liam was always available to help with our questions and guide us through the various challenges we faced. He answered our emails quickly. He was calm, friendly and sympathetic. We would definitely recommend him and would use him if we ever find ourselves in this situation again.

We had to gain possession of a rental property where the tenant had defaulted on rent for over 6 months. This was during COVID where rules had changed temporarily. Liam guided us always keeping us briefed with options and risks particularly as the case had various complications. His verbal advise was always detailed and followed up via email concisely. Furthermore, Liam would always return a call promptly when messages were left and also return missed calls.
Great service...and some!

When we had a tenant issue we used Liam Kreibich, Landlord Solicitor. He was professional, friendly, explained clearly the process and kept us updated on the progress. Should we have an issue again I wouldn't hesitate to use Liam and I definitely recommend him.

We received excellent service from the Smith Partnership through Liam Kreibich in connection with regaining possession of our property. Liam always responded to enquiries promptly, provided crystal clear verbal information (confirmed in writing) was supportive but always professional. We felt that the fees at different stages of the process  were well explained and that there would never be any unnecessary expenditure. Highly recommended.

Cannot recommend highly enough, received very professional service and was treated in a warm respectful manner by every person I spoke to, all responses to my emails or calls were very quickly handled and good ,thorough advice and support were given, I felt supported through a very difficult time dealing with an awful tenant for the first time. I will recommend Liam Kreibich and the smith partnership to anyone I hear is going through a similar experience … should also add that my bill was also a pleasant surprise and seriously less than I had dreaded could be the case, I was even due a refund and this was paid to me immediately, without me having to do a thing.

I needed to use a Solicitor for an eviction of a tenant. After research I chose Smith Partnership. Liam Kreibich took over our case and was very helpful with advice throughout the process from start to eventual eviction which was very successful.

Would highly recommend and would use again.

Excellent experience would like to thank Liam & the team for their work. When in court Judge praised the paperwork submitted. Many thanks.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy

Great service from Liam who assisted us with getting our rental house back. He kept in contact all the way through giving us updates. Can’t thank him enough for making the process a little easier for us. Thanks.

I was referred to this company via a letting agent as I had a issue with a tenant. The Solicitors was accurate and precise in their communication and knowledge of the issues and I would definitely recommend these.

Client, Landlord and Tenancy - Trust Pilot

Liam was very easy to contact and very responsive advising us how to serve notice on our lodger. After a briefing call, he very quickly prepared a formal notice and the lodger was on his best behaviour after that, until he found another place. Smith Partnership's fees were far more reasonable than our solicitor based in SE England.
