Business Leases

Ensuring Your Business Lease Works For You

Whether you are a landlord making a new lease or a tenant taking out a new lease, our commercial property solicitors are here to help make the process efficient, straightforward and work in your best interests. It’s vital the lease provides you with sufficient legal protection together with the freedom to conduct your business, and we will ensure the terms are fair and appropriate for you as a landlord or as a tenant.

We have experience and knowledge of handling a wide range of business leasehold transactions for both landlords and tenants, including the granting of leases and the taking of leases. Simplifying the legal jargon and checking the wording thoroughly to make sure there are no nasty surprises during your lease, you can rely on us for all professional commercial conveyancing services.

As a landlord, your lease needs to detail the terms clearly and should cover all aspects of the rent including amount and frequency, as well as alterations rights, responsibilities and maintenance obligations. Without a professionally drafted lease that includes the necessary clauses you may not be sufficiently protected should issues arise at a later date. Similarly, as a tenant it’s important you’re completely happy with the terms of the lease and before agreeing to a lease you will need to negotiate – and we’ll guide and support you throughout this process.

Our business lease services include:

• Granting and taking leases
• Assigning and terminating leases
• Lease renewals
• Lease management
• Lease variations
• Tenant default resolution
