It's a fact... companies that use professional expertise for an office move avoid mistakes, save time and get better value for their money.
There are, sadly, all too many examples where companies have paid the penalty of not having their own legal representation (usually driven by a lack of experience or desire to "save money"). This frequently causes issues at some stage throughout the lease.
Whatever your circumstances, it is essential to get legal advice from the outset. Find an experienced Property Solicitor who is alive to the pitfalls, up-to-date with current issues and negotiates office leases for a living.
