Core Services

We advise on land searches, due diligence, negotiation of heads of terms and full leases, and manage the legal process through to completion. For acquisitions, we handle financing arrangements, title verification and contract negotiation. We also use technology to streamline document management and virtual viewings.

Our services encompass all stages of commercial real estate transactions. We assist clients in identifying and appraising suitable sites, instructing surveyors and environmental consultants, and evaluating planning and zoning restrictions. We negotiate and document heads of terms to reflect the commercial deal before drafting full leases or sale agreements. For leases, we advise on rent reviews, break clauses, service charges, repair obligations, alienation rights, options to renew and assignments. We draft, review and negotiate agreements for lease, licences to alter, rent deposit deeds and guarantor documentation. In acquisitions, we conduct extensive due diligence, investigating title, encumbrances, easements, restrictive covenants and rights of way. We coordinate with lenders to satisfy financing conditions, including security documentation, and handle legal opinions. Our team also manages land registry applications, stamp duty and tax filings. We advise on property development projects by drafting development agreements, joint‑venture agreements and construction contracts. We help clients comply with planning permissions and building regulations, and we liaise with local authorities. We also represent landlords and tenants in disputes relating to dilapidations, rent reviews and lease renewals and advise on portfolio management, including refinancing and disposals.

Client Benefits

Our involvement reduces delays, ensures compliance and protects against future disputes. Clear agreements and thorough due diligence give clients certainty on obligations and rights, enabling them to move quickly when opportunities arise.

Comprehensive due diligence reveals potential issues such as planning breaches, hidden liabilities or restrictive covenants, allowing you to address them before committing. Well‑negotiated heads of terms and leases reduce the risk of disputes and provide clarity on rental obligations, break rights and repair responsibilities. Efficient management of financing and security documentation ensures that funds are released on time. Our use of technology speeds up document production, management and execution, which is crucial when competing for prime assets. We help clients understand their rights and obligations, enabling strategic decision‑making and preventing costly mistakes. Dispute resolution and portfolio management support ensure that your assets continue to perform and remain compliant with law and lease obligations.
