We act for landlords and tenants in negotiating and preparing commercial and retail leases. This includes reviewing lease terms, options, rent review mechanisms and outgoings, and making sure you understand your ongoing obligations.

We also advise on the sale and purchase of commercial and industrial properties, including due diligence and finance requirements.​ Our clients include small businesses, larger tenants, landlords and investors.
