Devon solicitors, Tozers LLP, have made Jason Hobday up from Associate Solicitor to Partner in their Social Housing team. Jason relocated from Lancashire to Devon in 2009 to work as an Associate Solicitor for Tozers Solicitors.

Jason specialises in housing law, landlord and tenant law and anti-social behaviour law. Jason has acted for a large number of local, regional and national, private and social landlords on a wide range of contentious and non-contentious matters. As a confident advocate, Jason has extensive experience of attending at many different County Courts to present applications and claims in judges' chambers and open court. He has also provided in-house training to a number of Local Authority and Housing Association clients on all aspects of housing and ASB law, as well as presenting legal updates at a number of housing and ASB conferences and seminar workshops.

Simon Sanger-Anderson, head of social housing at Tozers Solicitors, comments: "Jason has brought an added dimension to the housing management team and has been instrumental in winning a number of new clients in what is a very competitive market.''
