With QualitySolicitors, there’s no need for you to worry about business law
Make the wrong decisions about your business premises now, and you could find that growing your company becomes at best difficult, or at worst impossible.
But QualitySolicitors are experts in providing clear straightforward business legal advice that you can rely on.
Here’s how we’ve helped others looking for new business premises:
- Conducted a check on local authority Property Use Classes to identify whether trading would be allowed or prohibited in those premises.
- Conducted a simple local search that highlighted forthcoming town development plans that would have significantly reduced the natural traffic past prospective business premises.
- Negotiated a ‘break clause’ to allow a leaseholder to terminate a lease without penalty if certain variables such as low turnover were to occur.
- Clarified whether leaseholder or landlord was responsible for who maintains and repairs the property.
- Identified restrictive covenants on the property that would have severely restricted trade.
- Renegotiated rent increases that had been built into the lease contract.
- Advised on whether a prospective leaseholder should agree to a ‘personal guarantee’ request from the prospective landlord.
- Advised on whether a ‘license to occupy’ was a better deal that a lease arrangement.
- Advised on legal implications of taking out a mortgage for business premises.
