Our Commercial Property Legal Services
Our experienced commercial property solicitors, Leeds, provide a full range of legal services to support your property transactions and long-term investment strategy.
Some ways we can help include:
Commercial Property Sales and Purchases
We manage the legal process for buying and selling commercial premises, including offices, warehouses, retail units, and mixed-use properties. From conducting due diligence and raising enquiries to drafting contracts and handling completion, we make sure your transaction proceeds smoothly and without unnecessary delays.
Acting for Commercial Property Tenants
We advise tenants on new and existing leases, helping to negotiate favourable terms and ensure the lease protects your business interests. We will review the lease generally and report rent review clauses, service charges, repair obligations and break clauses, giving you clarity before you commit. Our reports will be tailored to suit your needs.
Commercial Leases and Lease Renewals
Whether you are granting or taking on a lease agreement, our team can assist with drafting, reviewing, and negotiating lease terms to minimise risk and future disputes. We also assist with lease renewals under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
Are you buying or selling commercial property at auction? We carry out pre-auction reviews of legal packs, identify any potential issues, and provide quick turnaround advice so you can bid with confidence. If you are a successful bidder, we handle post-auction conveyancing promptly to meet strict deadlines.
We advise on legal rights affecting commercial land, including rights of way, drainage rights, and access issues. If you are acquiring land or property, we will investigate whether any rights or easements affect your use or development plans and help you resolve or negotiate issues where needed.
Transfers of Part and Complex Transactions
We regularly handle more complex transactions such as transfers of parts, development site splits, and multi-title acquisitions. We’ll manage all legal, regulatory and practical aspects to ensure your transaction is compliant.
Overage Agreements
We draft and negotiate overage clauses to ensure sellers benefit from any future uplift in value, for example, if planning permission is later obtained. Whether you’re the buyer or seller, we’ll ensure the agreement is clear, enforceable, and aligned with your goals.
Option Agreements
Our solicitors advise on option agreements, conditional contracts, and promotion agreements. We ensure the terms are clearly defined and legally robust.
In cases where historical deeds are lost, inconsistent or unclear, we can reconstruct title to land using available documentation and statutory declarations. This is especially important where property is unregistered and title deeds have been lost.
Public and Private Rights of Way
Our team checks for the presence of public rights of way that may affect commercial land and investigates private rights of access. We help resolve access disputes and advise on how such rights may impact your plans for development or occupation.
