Specialists in Dilapidations and Negotiations
Dilapidations can be a minefield. We act for both landlords and tenants, using our expertise to achieve the best possible financial resolutions.
- For Tenants: We defend claims aggressively. In one notable case for Lastminute.com, we reduced a claim of several hundred thousand pounds to zero by proving the landlord's intentions didn't align with their demands.
- For Landlords: We prepare robust Schedules of Dilapidations and Quantified Demands that stand up to scrutiny, even in litigation or as Expert Witnesses in court.
From the Barbican Theatre to Modern Office Fit-outs
Our project management team handles the high-pressure environments where failure isn't an option. When the Corporation of London needed to upgrade the Barbican Theatre within a strict 12-week window between seasons, they trusted us to manage the process. We bring that same level of precision to:
- Office Fit-outs: Acting as your Project Manager or Employer’s Agent to avoid the "traps" of relying solely on contractors.
- Refurbishments & New Builds: Ensuring budgets are fair and quality control is absolute through our quantity surveying and contract administration skills.
"Our commitment is simple: customer-focused, easy-to-understand professional advice with a strict adherence to the highest industry standards."
A Partnership Built on Results
We offer a free initial consultation to understand your specific needs. From monitoring large-scale developments for institutional clients to advising on a single retail unit lease, we treat every instruction with the same level of professional integrity and commercial focus. We are often called upon to act as Expert Witnesses in litigation proceedings, a testament to the authority and accuracy of our work.
