Law firms ranked by client reviews

In England, repairing covenants cover a tenant’s obligation to keep the leased commercial premises in repair and to return the property at the end of the term in a satisfactory condition. A solicitor practising this area drafts, negotiates and negotiates the precise repair obligations, serves notices, and advises on remedies if a covenant is breached, including dilapidations claims and potential landlord consent issues for alterations or subletting. The work often hinges on the lease wording, condition surveys, and any schedules of condition, as well as how service charges and maintenance responsibilities are allocated between landlord and tenant.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the drafting and enforcement of repair covenants, negotiating the scope of repair, what qualifies as ‘in repair’, and any dilapidations provisions. They deal with condition surveys, notices of breach, possible recovery of costs, and interplay with service charges, insurance, and alterations. Complexities arise from the lease structure, whether the landlord’s repairs are recoverable, and the strategic sequencing of breach notices, negotiations, and potential litigation or recovery under the covenant.

Jessica represented my company on the land purchase transfer. She was professional and always contactable. Which was essential when the vendors solicitor wasn't. I wouldn't hesitate to engage her again for future transactions or to recommend her.
