Commercial Leases

Duncan McFadzean - Solicitor ELP Arbuthnott McClanachanAt ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan we represent both landlords and tenants in Edinburgh and across Scotland in drafting and negotiating commercial leases. Commercial leases are very different from standard leases of residential properties, and it is important that our clients are advised properly on a range of important commercial lease clauses.

Commercial Lease Solicitors

Our commercial lease solicitors advise our clients on a whole range of commercial lease issues, including rental obligations, deposit agreements, personal guarantees, rent review provisions, repairing and insuring obligations, and notices to quit.

Duncan Hamilton Solicitor ELP Arbuthnott McClanachanWe believe it is crucial for landlords and tenants to take legal advice on commercial leases before entering into them, as the financial and other obligations contained in commercial leases can be significant. However, we appreciate that businesses are not in a position to spend huge sums of money on legal fees for commercial leases, and we, therefore, offer legal fees which are reasonable and offer genuine value for money. We also know that when our landlord and tenant clients are entering into a commercial lease they want to know as accurately as possible what the legal costs will be. Our commercial lease solicitors, therefore, offer a very competitive hourly legal fees rate, but we also provide fixed price fees for individual pieces of commercial lease work in order that our clients know exactly what they will pay.

One of our commercial lease solicitors will be happy to discuss your fees options with you. Of course, we offer the same fees options from our West and East Edinburgh offices.

Catherine, thanks for making everything so easy and stress free! Thank you!

We used ELP for both buying and selling based on personal recommendation. They are up to date with the current state of the market and gave us good advice on what to offer so we were very happy with what we paid for our new flat. When it came to selling the photographers they used for the Home Report were excellent and very painstaking. The schedule they produced was upbeat and attractive. ELP staff gave us regular feedback on the progress of the sale and were always contactable. They offered a highly professional service while at the same time they were friendly and treated us as individuals. A very personal service.

This was our first time buying a property, and we were extremely nervous, but Lisbeth-Ann and the team held our hands and stepped us through each stage of the process; from advising how much to offer, to helping with a mortgage problem, to ensuring the smooth exchange of contracts and keys. We always felt like we were welcome to call at any time, and when Lisbeth-Ann took a short holiday part way through the process, her colleague Barbara picked our case up seamlessly and with no hassle. We would certainly recommend ELP’s services to anyone thinking of buying a property for the first time, and will happily use them again in the future.

I own a cleaning business in Edinburgh and use ELP for advice on matters such as staff contracts, client contracts, and any dispute situations. I am very impressed by the advice which I receive. They are always able to help me with large and small pieces of work, and the approach they take is clear and aimed at achieving quick solutions. My first language is Polish, so while I am also fluent in English I appreciate the fact that ELP will always make arrangements to meet with me to talk matters through face to face when required. I would definitely recommend ELP to business owners and individuals who need legal advice.

We are a medium sized law firm which does not have a department specialising in employment law matters. We have used ELP in relation to any employment law input we require as a firm. We have also referred a number of our clients to ELP for advice on such matters as we value the expert knowledge and quality service that Duncan McFadzean and his team provide. It is of paramount importance to us that both our own and our clients’ affairs are dealt with in a confidential and sensitive manner, and we know that we can rely on ELP for this. We would not hesitate to recommend ELP to either employers or employees who need advice in the employment law field.

I am a disabled person, and was dismissed from my work. It was claimed that I did not perform the work to the required speed, and I felt that this was disability discrimination. I asked ELP to represent me in the Employment Tribunal process. I was correctly and informatively advised by ELP, and achieved the best option in resolution.
