Advising Landlords on Tenant Insolvency

When a tenant becomes subject to an insolvency process, it is important for landlords to take appropriate action with a view to regaining possession of their property and recover sums that they are entitled to such as rent deposits and rent continuing to accrue for continued beneficial use. Where the insolvent tenant grants a licence to occupy to a buyer of their business, landlords will need to understand their rights and remedies and respond appropriately so as not to prejudice their ability to take back possession of the premises at a later date.

The team’s knowledge and experience in acting for insolvency practitioners makes them highly effective in representing the interests of landlords in these circumstances. The expertise of our team enables them to understand the various competing objectives of the parties and advise on strategies for negotiating arrangements to best serve the interests of the landlord. Early action may be key to maximising options and the prospects of return and our team are able to be responsive to the needs of a landlord in this situation.
