Finding the right commercial premises is essential
to the success of any business. The area of Property Law has seen an enormous
number of changes in recent years, which impose a whole series of new
responsibilities on property owners. There are certainly more changes
to come, and we believe it would be very unwise to enter into any form
of agreement relating to property without obtaining specialist legal advice.
Commercial Conveyancing
Commercial conveyancing takes many forms from the grant of a 6-month tenancy
to a 25-year Lease to acquisition of freehold commercial property. We
act for both Landlord and Tenant and can draft and advise on complex commercial
Leases and the acquisition of land for development purposes. Given the
increased complexity of Property Law, whether the premises are a small
corner shop or a large industrial estate, we are sure to deal with each
transaction with attention to detail and offer sound legal and commercial
advice.
Landlord & Tenant Act 1954
We have experience of acting for both Landlords and Tenants in proceedings
under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 in relation to disputes and negotiations regarding the grant of a new Lease once an existing Lease has come to
an end, the level of rent and the terms of the Lease. We instruct the
best Surveyors and Counsel to ensure our Client's cases are argued and
presented as effectively as possible.
Licensing
We can advise on Licensing Applications and applications for Protection
and Transfer Orders in respect of all types of Licenses for commercial
premises. We have conducted Hearings before the Licensing Justices and
we are fully conversant with the recent developments in Licensing Law.
Leasehold Valuation Tribunal Applications
We offer a specialised service in respect of applications to the Leasehold
Valuation Tribunal to both Landlords and Tenants regarding all matters
relating to the enfranchisement and extension of residential Leases under
the Leasehold Reform Act 1993. We are fully conversant with the new legislation
in this area of law.
