How we support commercial landlords and tenants
Commercial lease issues can affect income, premises, trading position, and long-term business plans. We help landlords and tenants understand their rights, manage risk, and take practical steps to resolve disputes or protect their position.
Initial review and risk assessment
We review the lease, correspondence, rent position, repair obligations, break clauses, renewal rights, or dispute background to identify the key legal and commercial risks.
Strategy and negotiation
We advise on the strongest route forward, whether that involves negotiation, enforcement, lease renewal, possession action, arrears recovery, or resolving a breach.
Resolution and protection
We help secure a practical outcome, from settlement and lease variation to formal notices, court action, or steps that protect your property, premises, or business position.
