RETAIL SOLICITORS
Expert guidance for the legal aspects of running a retail business
National retailers and local businesses are already safely in our hands
Thanks to our retail solicitors’ in-depth understanding of the issues and opportunities that are unique to the retail market, we’ve been instructed to act on behalf of a wide range of national and local brands.
Our clients vary in size and nature. We advise retailers large and small, from well-known chains and a charity with national portfolio of 400+ shops, as well as smaller high street shops such as hairdressers, coffee shops and shoe shops. We also work with e-commerce retailers operating exclusively on the web.
We help retail landlords, developers, property managers, directors and business owners overcome legal challenges.
Typically, that means providing skilled advice on corporate, commercial, intellectual property, employment, and commercial property matters – however complex or straightforward.
