Our experienced solicitors are here to support you in managing these issues, ensuring that your property interests are fully protected and that you remain compliant with relevant regulations. From development projects and planning disputes to property management and environmental compliance, we offer tailored solutions to meet your needs.

Landlord and Tenant Disputes

Commercial property disputes between landlords and tenants can arise at any time during the tenancy. Our solicitors provide support in resolving disputes quickly and effectively, including:

• Breach of Covenant: We handle disputes related to breaches of lease covenants, whether they involve rent arrears, property damage, or unauthorised changes to the property. Our solicitors aim to resolve these issues through negotiation but are prepared to take enforcement action where necessary.

• Service Charge and Repair Disputes: Disagreements over service charges, maintenance, or repair obligations are common in commercial leases. We provide clear advice on the rights and obligations of both parties and represent clients in negotiations or legal proceedings to resolve these disputes.

Property Litigation and Dispute Resolution

When conflicts related to commercial property arise, swift and effective resolution is critical to minimising disruption to your business. Our team offers:

• Mediation and Arbitration: We are experienced in resolving commercial property disputes through mediation and arbitration, which are often quicker and more cost-effective than court proceedings. We aim to achieve a favorable outcome while preserving business relationships.

• Boundary and Easement Disputes: Boundary disagreements or issues relating to rights of access (easements) can disrupt property use or development. Our solicitors provide practical advice and representation in disputes concerning land boundaries, rights of way, or shared facilities.

Property Management and Disposals

Managing commercial property effectively requires ongoing legal support to ensure compliance with statutory requirements and to address operational issues. We assist with:

• Statutory Compliance: We advise on compliance with fire safety regulations, accessibility laws, and other statutory requirements related to commercial property management.

• Compulsory Purchase Orders (CPOs): If your property is subject to a compulsory purchase order for public infrastructure projects, we provide advice on challenging the CPO or negotiating fair compensation.
