Commercial Property
Whether you’re looking for support buying, selling, leasing or developing a commercial property, it’s important to find a solicitor you get on with. Our Partner-led Commercial Property team combine years of experience and professionalism with a warm and friendly commercial approach. Working across a number of offices, we offer a personal service tailored to support you and your needs.
Urban and rural experience
From city-centre locations to rural development, and small shops to major London offices, we’ve worked on all types of projects including nursing homes, factories, pubs, hotels and schools.
As we have such a large team, we’re adept at dealing with multiple portfolio sales – the sale of healthcare properties, for example – in tight timescales. Our expertise extends beyond commercial property law. We have solicitors in our wider team with specialisms in property development, construction, planning, rural affairs, and have specialist property litigators to draw on should they be required.
Tailored advice
Our clients range from owner-managed businesses and start-ups to major corporates and PLCs. We’re very commercially-focused and we’ll tailor our approach depending on who you are and what you want, whether you’re a landowner selling development land or a property investor looking to grow a portfolio.
Trust us to give you the best advice – talk us through your aims and we’ll help you achieve them, advising on risks and keeping you updated every step of the way. For total transparency, our costs are also fixed and agreed from the outset.
