Landlord & Tenant

We can advise landlords and tenants on all tenancy related matters including:

  1. Medium-term leases of commercial premises such as department stores, office blocks and factory premises
  2. Shorter term leases of shops and offices
  3. Domestic leases for the letting of a house or flat
  4. Short-term tenancy agreements
  5. Agricultural tenancies
  6. Tenancies allotment gardens and licences to occupy
  7. Stamp Duty Land Tax
  8. Heads of terms
  9. New leases
  10. Renewal of existing leases
  11. Assignment of leases
  12. Subletting
  13. Variations to leases
  14. Lease extensions

For landlords and tenants of both business and domestic properties, the law is extremely technical and regulations must be strictly observed if your interests are to be protected.

We can deal with rent reviews, renewals, claims for dilapidations, possession proceedings, rent arrears, breaches of covenant (to repair and insure), specified use of a property, as well as advising you generally on all aspects of your lease or tenancy.

Gibson & Co. understands that for a tenant the successful and cost-effective renting or leasing of commercial property can be the fundamental element to the success of business. Conversely, an owner of both commercial and domestic property is looking to maximise the return from leasing premises. We strive to understand our client’s objectives whether acting for the landlord or tenant.

In addition, Gibson & Co.’s highly regarded Dispute Resolution team has considerable experience of advising on contentious issues in these areas.
