new leases and existing leases

Our dedicated team has a wide range of experience in dealing with all the intricacies of leases on behalf of our clients - across retail, industrial and office space. We provide advice to both landlords and tenants and will negotiate in your best interest at all times.

We can act on your behalf in negotiating new leases, as well as the surrender, varying, and renewing of existing leases. It is important to seek professional advice before entering into any agreements as an incorrect lease can prove costly. We can advise you on all the essential terms of the lease.

As well as drafting the lease and all accompanying documentation, we also advise on:

  • stamp duty land tax implications of the transaction
  • consent required in relation to alterations, assignments or underlettings
  • assignment of a lease including how to proceed and drawing up the necessary documentation
  • negotiating agreements for leases linked to construction contracts
  • handling all legal requirements, from both a landlord and tenant perspective where a lease will be entered into; for example following the completion of a new building
