We handle business sales and purchases, dealing with all of the related commercial property aspects

At Taunton Solicitors, we specialise in providing expert legal assistance to clients involved in commercial leases and lease assignments.

We understand that commercial leasing is a critical aspect of business operations, and the terms of a lease can significantly impact the success and profitability of a commercial venture. We will guide you through the complexities of commercial leases, ensuring your interests are protected.

We offer comprehensive services to both landlords and tenants.

For landlords, we assist in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating lease agreements that protect your rights and maximise your return on investment. We ensure that the lease terms are favourable, address crucial provisions such as rent escalation, maintenance responsibilities, and lease renewal options, and help mitigate potential disputes.

For tenants, we provide thorough analysis and negotiation of lease agreements to safeguard your interests. We help you understand the lease terms, evaluate the commercial viability of the property, and negotiate break clauses and other favourable terms and conditions where appropriate.  We also assist in lease assignment, subleasing, or lease surrender, ensuring that our clients’ rights are protected during these processes.

In the case of lease assignments, we assist both parties in navigating the legal complexities involved. We advise on due diligence to evaluate the viability of the assignment, review the original lease agreement, and negotiate terms between the assigning party, the assignee, and the landlord. Our goal is to facilitate a smooth transition while ensuring compliance with all legal requirements and protecting our clients’ interests.

With our in-depth knowledge of commercial leases and lease assignments, we strive to provide practical and effective solutions tailored to our clients’ specific needs.
