Leases
A lease runs for years, so the rent reviews, the make good clause and the options deserve a careful read before you commit.
We act for tenants and for landlords, and we tell you which terms are usually open to negotiation.

How a matter runs
-
A first call
Tell us what has happened and what you need. We will say whether we can help and who will look after it.
-
Costs in writing
Before any work starts you receive an estimate and a short letter setting out the scope.
-
The work itself
Drafting, searches, letters and negotiation, with a note to you each time something changes.
-
Wrapping up
We confirm what was done, hand back your originals and tell you anything left to watch for.
