Corporate Occupiers

The location of your offices and retail outlets can significantly impact upon the success of your business, so it’s important to seek legal advice at an early stage of any negotiation.

Our team of specialists support corporate clients on a range of property issues, including:

  • Property portfolio management
  • Acquisitions and disposals
  • Landlord and tenant advice
  • Mergers, acquisitions and rationalisation
  • Dispute resolution
  • Health and safety (environment planning and dispute)

We advise occupiers across a broad spectrum of sectors including office, retail, financial services, Leisure and industrial. We will work alongside your in-house property team to deliver a seamless ‘one team’ approach.

Our team has the experience to help you get the most out of your retail portfolio. We invest time getting to know you and to understand your business and the sector in which you operate. By doing this we are able to tailor our services and create a bespoke solution to suit your particular requirements.
