About

Provided by Bates Wells

We work with commercial organisations, social enterprises and charities alike, working in a range of sectors – from negotiating property agreements to leases to finance to development agreements.  We work alongside the large and the small, from owners such as the BFI to smaller community organisations.

As a B Corp, sustainability is close to our hearts. So, we also advise on environmental and sustainability issues – meaning your property makes its mark, without making a mark on the planet.
