Dealing with a lease dispute as a landlord or tenant? Speak to our solicitors on 0141 221 1919 for clear advice on your position.

Commercial Lease Disputes

Commercial lease disputes can place pressure on trading operations, investment plans, and cash flow. We act for landlords, tenants, and property owners in disputes involving offices, shops, licensed premises, industrial units, and other commercial property.

Our solicitors can assist with rent disputes, repairing obligations, dilapidations claims, irritancy notices, break clauses, assignation, subletting, and termination issues.

If there is a risk of urgent court action, commercial tenants and landlords may need to consider lodging caveats at the relevant courts. A caveat can help prevent certain orders being granted without advance warning. Learn more about our service of formal notices.

Residential Lease Disputes

Residential lease disputes can be stressful for landlords and tenants. We can advise on tenancy agreements, rent arrears, repairs, eviction procedure, deposit issues, and disputes about occupation rights.

Scottish residential tenancy law is highly procedural. Mistakes in notices, deadlines, or tribunal applications can delay matters and increase costs. Our team can help you understand the correct process and protect your position.

Avoiding and Resolving Lease Disputes

Many lease disputes can be resolved through early advice, correspondence, and negotiation. Where a practical settlement is possible, we will help you assess the risks and benefits before court or tribunal action is taken.

Where formal proceedings are required, we can represent you in the Sheriff Court, tribunal proceedings, or other appropriate forums.

Our litigation team has experience in both lease dispute procedure and the property law issues that often decide the outcome of a case.

We provide practical, direct advice designed to help you understand your options and take the right next step. Explore our wider litigation and dispute resolution services.
