What is a commercial lease?
A commercial lease is a legally binding agreement between a landlord and a tenant, allowing the tenant to use the property for business purposes under agreed terms.
What is a break clause in a commercial lease?
A break clause allows either the landlord or tenant to terminate the lease early under specified conditions, offering flexibility in long-term agreements.
What if I fail to stop after an accident?
Failing to stop and report an accident is a serious offence. However, if you were unaware of the incident or had a valid reason, we can help present a strong defence.
What happens if the tenant refuses to leave after an eviction notice?
If the tenant does not vacate, you will need to apply for a possession order. If they still do not leave, enforcement through bailiffs may be required.
What happens if my company is involved in a corporate merger or takeover?
Business ownership changes may affect your Sponsor Licence. You must notify the Home Office and ensure compliance with corporate immigration rules, which we can help navigate.
What happens if I want to exit my lease early?
Early termination options include break clauses, lease assignments, or negotiating an early surrender with the landlord. Our solicitors can guide you through the best approach.
What happens if I drive without insurance?
Driving without insurance can result in fines, penalty points, or a driving ban. If you were mistakenly uninsured, we can present a defence to reduce the penalties.
What happens if I die without a will?
If you pass away without a will, your assets will be distributed under intestacy rules, which may not align with your wishes. This can also lead to complications and delays in administering your estate.
What happens if a loved one loses mental capacity and does not have an LPA?
If no LPA is in place, you may need to apply to the Court of Protection for the legal right to manage their affairs, which can be a lengthy and costly process.
What evidence do I need to support my claim?
Strong evidence includes medical reports, accident reports, witness statements, photos of injuries, and any relevant financial losses (such as medical expenses or lost wages).
