Commercial Leases
Expert guidance on negotiating, drafting, and managing commercial lease agreements. I ensure your lease terms protect your position, whether you're a landlord or tenant.
Commercial leases are often the largest financial commitments a business makes. I provide detailed advice on lease negotiations, helping you understand every clause and its implications. From rent review mechanisms to repair obligations, service charges to break clauses, I ensure the terms reflect market standards and protect your interests. I work with property investors, occupiers, and landlords to structure leases that work commercially.
Learn more →Property Acquisitions
Comprehensive acquisition advice for commercial properties, from initial offer through completion. I guide you through due diligence, legal investigations, and structuring to protect your investment.
Acquiring a commercial property is one of the biggest investment decisions you'll make. I handle the full acquisition process: advising on structure, conducting detailed due diligence, investigating title and legal issues, negotiating on behalf of purchasers, managing searches and enquiries, and guiding you through completion. I ensure you understand what you're buying and the legal and financial risks involved.
Learn more →Development Agreements
Specialist advice on development agreements, from site acquisition through to completion. I help you navigate the legal and commercial complexities of property development projects.
Development projects involve layers of complexity: acquisition of land, planning permission, construction contracts, development finance, and agreements with multiple parties. I advise developers, landowners, and investors on development agreements, joint venture structures, and the legal framework governing development projects from conception to completion.
Learn more →Landlord & Tenant Disputes
Pragmatic resolution of landlord and tenant disputes. I help both landlords and tenants navigate disputes over rent, repairs, service charges, and other lease issues, seeking early resolution where possible.
Disputes between landlords and tenants are common but often destructive. Whether the issue is rent arrears, repair obligations, service charge disputes, or breach of lease terms, my approach is to understand both sides' positions and seek pragmatic, cost-effective resolution. I advise landlords on enforcement options and tenants on their rights and obligations.
