Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for VAT, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

VAT in commercial property covers value-added tax on transactions and ongoing charges related to business premises, including rents, purchases, and property-related services. A solicitor specialising in this area drafts and negotiates VAT clauses in leases and sale contracts, advises on whether a building sale is taxable, and guides elections to tax (option to tax). They carry out due diligence, verify HMRC positions, and handle VAT disputes, invoicing rules, and potential exemptions or partial exemptions to protect the client’s position.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

Wrong VAT treatment can create unexpected costs or disputes; a solicitor provides professional indemnity coverage, regulatory accountability, and protection for client accounts and VAT-related proceedings. They clarify the risk, secure compliant wording, and manage any formal notices or disputes with HMRC to help preserve the client’s position.

Kiri KkoshiSaira Ahmed

Tagged solicitors Kiri Kkoshi and Saira Ahmed

I had the pleasure of working with Saira Ahmed as my conveyancing solicitor, and I cannot praise her enough for the exceptional service she provided. Saira's swift response and proactive approach throughout the entire process allowed me to make informed decisions promptly, ensuring that I could act in a timely manner. Her dedication and efficiency brought a great deal of assurance and comfort during what could have been a stressful journey, especially given any possible delays from officials and missteps by the seller's solicitor. Without Saira's perseverance and attention to detail, the deal would not have been completed properly. I also want to thank Kiri for taking my case at the very time of my need and Ferris for the swift acknowledgment of the client's financial statement, which, in addition, provided a comprehensive and valuable experience throughout the conveyancing journey.

Naomi Williams

Tagged solicitor Naomi Williams

I instructed Dutton Gregory on my first commercial property purchase. Whilst the transaction itself completed successfully, I was disappointed with the level of service and advice I received. During my own review of the completion statement, I identified several significant errors, including the omission of rent deposits for two commercial units, rent paid in advance not being accounted for, and an incorrect Stamp Duty Land Tax calculation. Had I not queried these figures myself, I would have overpaid by over £13,000. Whilst mistakes can happen, I would not have expected errors of this nature or magnitude on a completion statement prepared by a solicitor. I was also concerned that a charge document submitted to Companies House contained my signature and my witness's residential address, which became publicly available. I later discovered that this information could have been redacted before submission. My previous experience with a similar Companies House filing was that such information had been redacted as a matter of course, so I had no reason to believe this document would be treated differently. My concern is not that they failed to follow an instruction—I wasn't aware there was a decision to make. Rather, I would have expected a solicitor, particularly knowing this was my first commercial property transaction, to advise me that the document would be published in full and that redaction was an available option. Following a complaint, the firm maintained that advising on redaction was not part of its standard process unless specifically requested. Whilst I respect that this is their position, I remain disappointed by the outcome and feel that a little more proactive guidance, together with greater attention to detail throughout the transaction, would have avoided these issues entirely. For those reasons, I would be hesitant to use the firm again.
