commercial property

overview

The fundamental importance of commercial property in the local and national economy is reflected in the size and experience of this multi-disciplinary group of lawyers. The great strength of the commercial property group at FSP lies in the diversity of legal backgrounds and expertise of members of the group. Leading the group is a strong team of mainstream commercial property lawyers and they are supported by experts in the field of construction law, licensing and dispute resolution.

Whether you are a start-up business looking for short-term office space, an established firm looking to relocate or a company requiring additional warehousing or a new factory, we can help you achieve your objectives efficiently and at reasonable cost. In any transaction we can bring in the expertise of other groups where this is called for. We work closely on many commercial property transactions with lawyers from our banking and property development groups. Our aim is always to ensure that your legal requirements are dealt with by the right people with the right experience.

Head of the commercial property group, Dean Bickford, says: "The most important part of our job comes right at the beginning of the transaction when we have to listen very carefully to what our client wants. Every client needs something different and it is of fundamental importance that the client’s instructions are fully understood and reflected in the final deal. Members of my group understand very well the need to pay close attention to what our clients need. I believe that our attention to detail in the property work we do sets us apart from other firms in the Thames Valley."
