Looking beyond the case to our clients’ wider business needs.
Strategy and tactics play a large part in everything we do. We tailor our approach to each specific case. This applies whether we are negotiating a rent review, renewing, surrendering or restructuring a commercial lease or negotiating a dilapidations claim. Our advice covers not only the obvious aspects such as the terms of the property lease, market conditions and rental evidence but, just as importantly, how the negotiations might affect the wider business or investment objectives. The best results are achieved with our blend of valuation and legal expertise.
Negotiated settlements are desirable, but not at any cost. Our robust approach to commercial property lease negotiations is backed by our ability to act as expert witness at arbitration or in Court.
Our clients include businesses of all sizes. Among them are Sony Music, Xstrata (UK) Services Limited, Bloomsbury Publishing, Aberdeen Asset Management, Wilkinson Hardware Stores Limited, SIG, Annington Homes.
