Common questions
Commercial Law FAQs
- I am buying a business. What should I look at first?
- The lease, the employee entitlements, the plant and equipment list, the restraint on the seller, and whether the goodwill you are paying for actually transfers. We review the contract and tell you where the risk sits.
- Can you review a lease before I sign?
- Yes. We review commercial and retail leases for both landlords and tenants, and explain the rent reviews, make-good, outgoings and options in plain terms.
