We liaise with your legal advisors from the initial service of formal notices through to completion of documentation.

We provide budgets and projected outcomes for single properties or corporate portfolios, either on a ‘desktop’ basis or following full inspections. Our access to data and the market knowledge within our lease advisory, brokerage, and valuation teams means that we can respond quickly and accurately to client requests.
Dispute resolution advice
Our team are appointed as an Expert Witness in references to arbitrators, independent experts and court proceedings. In the event a settlement cannot be negotiated, we are highly experienced in the referral of rent review disputes to either arbitration or independent experts. We have a detailed knowledge of the statutory framework provided by the Arbitration Act 1996 and of the procedural instructions required by independent experts.
