When a commercial tenancy dispute occurs, landlords and tenants both run risks of negative consequences besides the issue at the centre of the dispute.
For a landlord, income from your tenancy may be stopped or reduced, or your valuable commercial property may be at risk of harm.
For a commercial tenant, a dispute might jeopardise your ability to continue business from your premises, affecting your revenue.
It is often in everyone’s interests for a landlord/tenant dispute to be resolved as quickly as possible, ending a financially-damaging situation. Fast resolution also allows parties to move on from the commercial tenancy if need be – either re-letting the property (as a landlord) or finding new business premises (as a commercial tenant).
Luscombe Gray can help. Whether you are a commercial landlord or a commercial tenant, we can advise you on your legal position and guide you towards the best possible outcome for your business.

Luscombe Gray specialises in commercial property litigation, offering practical and effective legal support to clients involved in commercial tenancy disputes. Our solutions are not just abstract legal problem-solving; they are grounded in the real-world context of your business. Your business and its interests are placed at the centre of everything we do for you.
With a dispute between a landlord and tenant, this will often involve trying, wherever possible, to maintain a good working relationship with the other party so that the option to continue the tenancy remains open after the dispute has ended.
This is where our ethical approach to handling your case pays dividends. We avoid the overly-aggressive methods of ‘negotiation’ employed by many litigation firms. We find that a strong, respectful approach yields more options for dispute resolution, such as mediation. With more options available, there is a greater chance of ending the dispute with the minimum cost and disruption to your business.
