Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Schedule of Dilapidations, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

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.

Lorna Fraser

Tagged solicitor Lorna Fraser

I went to Darwin Gray seeking help with the transfer of ownership on a property, and Lorna (Fraser) was excellent. She was professional and timely, regularly going out of her way to give me the correct advice. She made the process, which had been stressful prior to her involvement, really easy to follow and I wouldn't hesitate to procure her services in the future. Thanks again Lorna!

Leila Archer

Tagged solicitor Leila Archer

We appointed Leila as our solicitor for a sale and purchase transaction - she was fantastic. All the way through the process she communicated with us clearly and simply and was able to explain and advise on the risks assuredly. We also did not have to chase - she fully understood the timescales and worked hard to keep the transactions going at pace. In the end we had to exchange and complete quickly due to the circumstances of the purchase (outside of our control) and Leila managed it through to conclusive fluently with minimum fuss. We can't thank her enough! Would definitely recommend.

Sadie has been immensely helpful and supportive throughout our first ever remortgage process. The initial contact was fast and clear and I understood everything that was required from me. Sadie kept constant communication and answered every question promptly and with full details so I was never left unsure of the answer given. Couldn’t recommend enough
