Hotels
An experienced solicitor with local knowledge is invaluable when purchasing a hotel, guest house or bed & breakfast business.
Not only does the solicitor need to be a competent conveyancer, but they also need to have the necessary knowledge to deal with the legal aspects of the purchase of the business which involves complex issues such as VAT and apportionment of price to maximise fiscal advantages. We can also advise you on incorporation of your business and funding arrangements.
We are sufficiently expert in our field to ensure that any issues relating to employment or licensing matters are referred to the appropriate specialists within the firm.
