Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Occupational Leases, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Occupational leases cover the rights to occupy commercial premises for business purposes, typically as a tenant under a short or long lease when the focus is on occupation and use rather than ownership of the land. A solicitor in this area drafts, negotiates and finalises terms for the lease, including rent, service charges, repairing responsibilities, and user restrictions; advises on renewals, assignments, or exits; and helps with notices, dilapidations, and any landlord-tenant disputes that arise in the course of occupation.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles provisions, rent review mechanics, repairing covenants, guarantees, and break options, together with any related notices and registration. They coordinate with landlords, tenants, and property managers, identify potential liabilities, and ensure terms align with statutory protections and market practice. Complex scenarios may involve multiple parties, insolvency risk, or redevelopment constraints that affect occupation.

So I have recently completed on a lease for a commercial property and Hassan was super efficient in dealing with all the legals and paperwork. I believe communication is super important when it comes to business and Hassan was super responsive and dealt with all the queries very efficiently. I will definitely use this company again for my future conveyances!! Thank you 😊

Alexandra BartlettKatrina Whyard

Tagged solicitors Alexandra Bartlett and Katrina Whyard

Katrina was very efficient and so quick to reply to any enquiries I may have had and made our difficult purchase run extremely smoothly. Without a doubt would be more than happy for Katrina to deal with future sales and purchases and will recommend my daughter to use her when she plans a move next year. However, as Katrina was on sick leave, Alexandra took over our sale and purchase and again got amazing help from her to aid our completion, again very friendly yet professional and again would definitely recommend Burrows Solicitors as a very professional and a delight to work with. Thank you both.
