We act for buyers, sellers, and lenders across a wide range of matters, including freehold and leasehold sales and purchases, re-mortgages, transfers of equity, shared ownership, and new-build properties. Our solicitors manage every stage of the process, from initial instruction through to completion, undertaking contract reviews, title investigations, searches, and compliance with lender requirements.  

By combining legal expertise with a practical understanding of the property market, we provide clear, tailored advice that allows our clients to proceed with confidence. Whether assisting first-time buyers or seasoned investors, we aim to ensure that each transaction is smooth, timely, and stress-free.

Commercial

Our firm provides comprehensive legal services in commercial property transactions, acting on behalf of both landlords and tenants. We understand that commercial property arrangements are central to business success, and we are committed to delivering clear, practical advice that protects our clients’ interests and supports their long-term objectives.  

For landlords, we prepare and negotiate leases, licences, and tenancy agreements, ensuring that property rights are safeguarded and income streams are secured. We advise on matters such as rent reviews, lease renewals, service charges, and compliance with statutory obligations. Our solicitors work to structure agreements that minimise risk and maximise commercial benefit.  

For tenants, we review and negotiate lease terms to ensure that commitments are fair, manageable, and aligned with business needs. We advise on rights of occupation, obligations under leases, break clauses, and options for assignment or subletting. Throughout, our goal is to provide clarity and to secure terms that support our clients’ operational and financial interests.  

With experience acting for both landlords and tenants, we bring balanced insight to negotiations and transactions. Our commercial property practice is founded on professionalism, efficiency, and a client-focused approach, ensuring that every deal is handled with precision and care.
