A schedule of dilapidations covers claims by a landlord for disrepair and missed maintenance at the end of a commercial lease, set out in a formal schedule often supported by a surveyor’s report. A solicitor practising in this area reviews the lease, the landlord’s claim, and any defence; they instruct or liaise with surveyors, prepare responses, and negotiate settlements or pursue/defend court or arbitration proceedings. The work hinges on lease covenants, the state of premises, and timelines for repairing or compensating for disrepair.
The consequences of disputed disrepair can lead to significant financial liability for the tenant or landlord, and professional accountability protects clients through professional indemnity insurance, regulatory oversight, and rights to contest or enforce claims in court or via adjudication. A solicitor’s role includes ensuring the schedule accurately reflects covenants, interpreting repair costs, and negotiating appropriate settlements that reflect genuine condition and lease terms.

Our purchase was a long drawn out process with regards to the lending which meant the vendor was putting us under immense pressure. Once the lending was approved and Mark was fully involved his commitment could not be faulted and he was clearly working all hours to achieve exchange in the time frame laid out by the vendor. I could not fault the service and attention to detail throughout the whole process.

We have been working with Helen for over 10 years, and she has consistently provided outstanding service in handling our property purchases. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and clear communication have made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and well-managed. Helen is always responsive, approachable, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure everything is handled efficiently and thoroughly. We’ve had complete confidence in her advice and expertise throughout every transaction. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Helen to anyone looking for a reliable and experienced solicitor, and we look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.
