| TENANTS
Don't overpay
at lease end.
From early lease strategy through to final delivery, we step in at any stage and take control of your position, ensuring you only pay what is justified.
| THE PROBLEM
Tenants don't overpay in one moment.
They overpay across the process.
Before lease end, during negotiation, or when works are being delivered, the position weakens when it isn’t properly controlled.
01 Leases misinterpreted
02 Claims accepted too quickly
03 The timeframe to challenge has been and gone
| THE SOLUTION
Wherever you are in the process, we step in and take control from that point.
AT ANY STAGE
Some clients engage early, to understand their position and avoid unnecessary exposure before anything is challenged. Others come to us once a claim is underway or when works are being pushed unnecessarily.
In each case, our role is the same.
We assess the position properly, establish a clear strategy, and ensure it is managed through to the right outcome.
| TIMING
12 months changes everything.
Early advice gives you control of your exposure and the opportunity to reduce it. Late advice limits options and increases the likelihood of overpaying.
Reduced control
Position weakened
Strong position
12-18 months before
lease end
Clear understanding of liability
Strong negotiating position
Plan and reduce exposure
At lease end
Limited time to respond
Increased pressure to settle
Less control over outcome
Post claim
Position already inflated
Costs harder to challenge
Outcome largely dictated
| THE HAWKSTONE WAY
How we take control.
We are typically brought in when liability is unclear or exposure is already increasing. Our role is to step in, understand the position properly and take control of how it is handled from that point forward.
Strategy.
We review the lease, the claim and the wider position in detail, identifying what is valid, what can be challenged and where liability can be reduced.
Execution.
We manage the detail properly. Schedules, costings and negotiation are handled with control and intent, ensuring the position is not inflated or accepted unnecessarily.
Delivery.
Where works are required, we ensure they are scoped correctly and delivered efficiently. This avoids unnecessary cost and ensures you are not doing more than is required.
| WHY HAWKSTONE
We advise on the entire journey.
Dilapidations don’t sit in isolation. They build across the process, before lease end, during negotiation, and when works are delivered.
Most firms step in at one stage. That leaves gaps.
Gaps are where tenants overpay.
We stay involved where it matters:
-
At the outset, establishing your true position
-
Through negotiation, challenging what isn’t justified
-
During delivery, ensuring no unnecessary work is carried out
