Leasing
For your all your retail, commercial and industrial leasing needs
Our leasing team is most efficient when we are retained early in a transaction. This allows us to ensure that our client and their agent have been able to consider all relevant commercial and legal aspects of the transaction, and reduces the chances of either party developing misguided expectations.
We have decades of experience acting for hundreds of clients, from large publicly listed companies to small businesses. We have a deep understanding of the issues that are likely to occur, and we guide our clients efficiently and effectively with a view to prompt closure of the transaction for the benefit of all parties. With a lack of any agreed Lease formats across the industry, anything less than a very pragmatic approach often results in inefficiencies.
Our team is committed to developing valuable, long-term relationships with our clients and works hard to understand their businesses and industries. This allows us to deliver accurate, timely and practical advice.
What our clients say

Matthew Russell and Simon Thompson have been looking after our legal matters both business and personal, for almost a decade. They have taken the time to get to know our business intimately and we appreciate having a legal contact who can cover such a broad range of services for us. Our personal dealings have always run very smoothly and they are always extremely thorough in reviewing contract for us.
I have worked closely with Matthew Russell and his team at Nicholsons Solicitors for a number of years on a variety of different projects from house sales and purchases to loan agreements and leasing contracts and consider Matthew to be a close friend as we have grown to know each other on a personal basis through our dealings. Matthew is always available and ready to support me and my family at any time, is efficient and extremely knowledgeable in his field. I am confident every time I seek Matthew’s advice that I will be guided with honesty and the correct information. I look forward to a long standing and continuing relationship with Matthew and Nicholsons Solicitors into the future.
It’s been a pleasure to work with Stephen over what is now coming up to a 10 year relationship- I appreciate Stephen for his strong commercial acumen and logical approach to deliver outcomes.
