property acquisition & disposal

Browne Jacobson’s commercial property team provides legal support for all property transactions including specialist advice and services for acquisitions and disposals. The team works for a wide range of clients in both the public and private sector, including investors, service industries, major retailers, developers, local authorities and housing associations.

Working alongside client project teams, advisers ensure that legal work is completed efficiently and within deadlines and clients are kept fully informed throughout the process. The expert team advises on the acquisition and disposal of both freehold and leasehold commercial property, commercial and residential developments, forward sales and pre-lettings.

The team draws on expertise from across the firm to ensure clients receive the best advice on related areas. These include regulatory authorities, for example any environmental issues and associated liabilities, and the planning process from application to appeal and judicial review. The team can also advise on transactions under the private finance initiative and other public/private partnership arrangements.
