Lease Extension

The Lease Extension was done smoothly as I was the Director of the company other Director's did the work required without any problems. May be our case therefore was different than others.

As a local charity which is also a landlord we are very sensitive to how the matter is handled. Alex and his team understood this and provided excellent timely advice and service in difficult circumstances where good liason was very important.

A thoroughly professional and stress-free service

5

My dealings with Alex Crabbe through the process of granting lease extensions to individual owners within a small development of apartments has been educational and a real pleasure. Alex has been helpful, patient and thoroughly proficient in steering a group of naive directors representing the freehold company for the development through the process of issuing new leases to the owners. His advice on how to deal with some difficult issues has been clear and reliable and the entire process has been an exemplar of efficiency and professionalism. I would not hesitate to engage Alex and his firm again should a future need arise.

His style of communication really worked for me, and made it a pleasure to deal with him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rawlins Davy to anyone needing legal services.

I recently had a tricky sale/lease extension/purchase combo that was handled by Rawlins Davy. Due to some issues at my buyer's solicitor, the process was far longer than it should have been.

However, Rawlins Davy acted in the most professional and thoughtful manner possible - taking time to answer my queries with measured, understandable responses, and offering excellent advice to ensure we continued to make progress even when the outlook was bleak.

I'm very impressed with the way they took a personal interest in my process, and I never felt that what I was asking was too much trouble. Becky and Alex were particularly excellent, and are a credit to the team.
