expert asset management legal services

Corporate landlords and tenants have come to value Knights' streamlined and timely service and completion of deals. Our Asset Management teams understand the concerns and commercial needs of both sides. We manage landlord investment portfolios and tenant business needs and pressures swiftly and efficiently.

about the knights asset management team

Landlords and tenants experience differing commercial priorities and pressures, which is why we run separate teams so our work can be tailored to your landlord and tenant individual needs. We seek to maximise investment potential and income streams for landlords, whilst for tenants, the focus is on business needs, growth and development requirements.

Individual members of the teams work on a specific portfolio, so they understand its idiosyncrasies. We also have experience in numerous related areas of practice and can call on other teams and units (including tax, construction, development, environmental, agricultural, minerals & waste and finance & security) to service the complexities of our clients' needs as necessary. All of which means they can get on with their own day to day business.

For many years, the team has edited the leading text for the interpretation, negotiation and drafting of leases and associated documents, Ross: Commercial Leases, dubbed the 'Property Lawyer's Bible'. In addition, Karl Bamford, an experienced Knights partner, has written a practical commercial text much favoured by practitioners 'Amending a Commercial Lease', now into its 3rd edition.

how knights solicitors can help you

We make complicated services simple for our clients. And because we have a regional cost base, we can provide an extremely cost effective service.

As well as asset management, we can offer a whole range of additional services from taking a lease of a corner shop, helping to avoid traps for an unwary tenant, to dealing with the lettings on large retail parks and major shopping centres: we can also provide creative and innovative technical guidance in more complex transactions, including new build developments or as part of tax schemes. Just ask us. We'll surprise you how straightforward it is to do business with us!

Some of the areas where we can help:

• Agreements for lease
• Leases, surrenders, assignments and sub-lettings
• Licences to assign/sublet and alter
• Options
• Sales and leasebacks

in good company

We work with both landlords and tenants. Our clients range from large commercial companies and investors to individuals and across a variety of sectors including retail, office, distribution and storage. They trust us to manage their assets and they stay with us because we deliver. Our services are a sound financial investment for them.
