Litigation based commercial lease renewal
Litigation support for contested commercial lease renewals, including notices and court proceedings.
Litigation based commercial lease renewal
At Mounteney Solicitors, we provide legal support for landlords and tenants involved in the renewal of commercial leases protected under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. We advise on your rights, prepare and respond to notices, and act in court proceedings where terms are disputed or renewal is opposed.
The 1954 Act gives business tenants the right to renew their lease when the contractual term ends, provided the tenancy has not been excluded from the Act. This right gives tenants stability and the ability to continue occupying their premises, usually with a rent adjustment to reflect current market conditions.
We begin by reviewing your circumstances and advising on your position. We then act in the necessary steps to protect your interests, whether you are seeking to renew, oppose renewal, or negotiate terms. The legal work required can vary significantly depending on the facts of the case, so we provide a tailored quote once we understand the scenario.
If you are involved in a commercial lease that is nearing expiry and want legal guidance on renewal under the 1954 Act, our team can help you navigate the process with clarity and confidence.

Money Matters
Tenants may initiate renewal via a request under Section 26, while landlords can oppose renewal using a Notice under Section 25, both requiring specific procedures. Unresolved disputes go to court where landlords must prove valid grounds (e.g. redevelopment) or pay compensation.
