Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Exchange of Contracts, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

In England, the exchange of contracts in commercial property binds buyer and seller to complete the sale, after heads of terms, surveys and local searches are done. A solicitor drafts and negotiates the contract, raises and answers conditions, manages the deposit, and coordinates with lenders, the Land Registry, and the other party. It marks a turning point from negotiation to formal commitment and sets timetable milestones and consequences if a condition is breached.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A solicitor handles the drafting and negotiation of the contract, ensures the correct information is included (title, boundaries, leases, fixtures and fittings), arranges pre-completion searches and enquiries, and oversees the transfer documentation and registrations. If a problem arises, the solicitor coordinates responses, finalises the dispositions and deeds, and liaises with lenders, vendors, and buyers to protect the client’s interests under professional regulation and client account rules.

Cara Groves

Tagged solicitor Cara Groves

Cara has been absolutely brilliant throughout all of my property transactions. She is incredibly responsive, always on top of everything, and keeps deals moving even when things become complicated or time sensitive. What I really appreciate is that she doesn’t just sit back when the other side is being unreasonable, she pushes back firmly and professionally to protect her client’s position and get things resolved. In property, especially auction and fast-paced transactions, having a solicitor like that makes a huge difference. She is now handling all of my property deals and I genuinely would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a proactive, reliable, and highly competent solicitor.

Ash Simpson

Tagged solicitor Ash Simpson

I sold a property through an auctioneer I'd never used before. They wanted me to use their legal team for the conveyancing but I refused and used Nelsons as they were doing work for me already and I knew they would do the job right. So glad I did. Ash and his team have been amazing. Friendly and approachable and really pushed the sale through. Excellent service

Brad Whiteley

Tagged solicitor Brad Whiteley

Brad helped us with a purchase which we thought would be a complicated and lengthy process. However, from the start we have received a very friendly and efficient service with excellent communication throughout. Elements of the purchase process which we didn’t understand were explained and we guided through to ensure we did everything correctly. We are very happy with our experience with Brad and BG Solicitors. .
