We Handle Commercial Property Lease Disputes Relating To:
Lease contracts, whether short or long-term, can be complex documents involving onerous obligations that landlords and tenants must adhere to.

Commercial Leasing Disputes Can Be Resolved Through:
At DLS Law, we take a personal approach to resolving commercial leasing disputes, providing effective and pragmatic advice at every stage. The options we will explore are the following:
1. Negotiation
We will always strive to resolve disputes amicably through negotiation; however, it does require both parties to be willing to compromise. Transparent communication and openness to exploring options will be vital to finding a mutually agreeable outcome.
2. Alternative Dispute Resolution
The second option is ADR methods such as mediation and arbitration. Both routes involve a neutral third party; while mediation focuses on discussing options and reaching a settlement, any decisions made during arbitration will be legally binding.
3. Litigation
If all other options fail, we will begin litigation, which is the formal process of resolving disputes in court. Our team will guide you through every stage, ensuring that you remain clear on your options and position, helping you to achieve the best outcome.
