Licensed & Leisure Property...

‘The licensed trade’ covers an enormous range of different business models. From multi-national brewers to community corner shops; from pub-co's owning or managing thousands of pubs to couples running the traditional local; from busy nightclubs to smart restaurants.

Whatever its size or type of operation, every business in this highly regulated sector is likely to need help from experienced legal professionals. Smith Partnership acts for some of the biggest players in the business... and also some of the smallest.

We can deal with all legal aspects of licensed premises, including:

applications for, and transfer of, licences
disputes and licence reviews
buying and selling licensed or leisure property
leases and lease disputes
tenant default
