Expertise for your Business

Corporate Transactions

We specialise in the sale and purchase of companies and businesses.  Often these businesses are owner managed with succession planning issues and require pre-sale restructuring.  We have acted on the disposal of dental, legal and accountancy practices and a wide variety of other businesses operating in various sectors.

Our service is tailored to meet your needs so that we can work efficiently with you and your other advisers to achieve the best possible outcome.  

We can advise on corporate finance and security arrangements. We can translate the jargon for you to ensure that the finance arrangements being made meet your expectations.

If you need independent legal advice before giving a personal guarantee for the liabilities of your company or other third party, please get in touch.

We carry out the sale and purchase of commercial property across the country. Our specialist has carried out many interesting and challenging projects where property is used for a wide variety of planning uses, including offices and factories, holiday parks, park homes, agriculture, recycling centres and quarries. We can also advise on property related issues such as the grant of easements, options and overage agreements.

We advise landlords and tenants on commercial leasehold negotiations, lease renewals, rent deposits, authorised guarantee agreements, licence for alterations, lease assignments and sub-letting work. We advise on a variety of ancillary issues involved in owning and letting property, for example, varying lease terms, rescheduling rent payments, granting licences to occupy, rent review and dilapidation issues. 

We have particular expertise advising GPs on leases subject to NHS rent reimbursement and advising on high value leases.
