Business Services

Berry Redmond Gordon & Penney's small business clients can be confident that they don't have to compete with bigger companies for attention. At Berry Redmond Gordon & Penney, our teams focus on providing accessible and practical advice tailored specifically to the needs of the small business.

Often small businesses only look for legal advice at the point when things go wrong. We are there to help put things right. Our advice is practical and we aim wherever possible to prevent the necessity of a trip to a tribunal or other such court. We can advise in all areas of dispute resolution including partnership, property and employee disputes, breach of contract and business breakdown.

At Berry Redmond Gordon & Penney each case and each business is welcomed and receives immediate and ongoing personal attention.

We can advise on commercial structures and contracts and issues surrounding the sale, purchase and lease of commercial property. We can also assist with the sale and purchase of a business as a going concern. We provide balanced and clear commercial advice alongside personal service. Our team of solicitors and conveyancers can assist with the following:

• Property litigation.
• Landlord and Tenant matters.
• Bank guarantees and consultant contracts.
• Business purchases and sales.
• Residential tenancy possession proceedings and eviction.
• Commercial lease forfeiture.
• Contested commercial lease renewals under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
• Bringing or defending proceedings in connection with rent arrears, breaches of covenant or dilapidation claims.

We act decisively through negotiation, mediation or arbitration, as well as litigation, if it is required.

We believe that having procedures and contracts in place at the start can avoid misunderstanding and uncertainty, and can prevent the need for expensive action later.
