Landlord and Tenant

We work closely with our clients to maximise value while protecting established business relationships.

Whether you are an investor or an occupier, it’s important to get the most out of your real estate assets. That means finding advisors who understand the local conditions, and how domestic regulations might impact on your financial obligations. Your lawyers should also be able to represent your interests firmly but sensitively, without damaging ongoing relationships.

Deacons has roots in the Hong Kong market that date back to 1851, coupled with experience of working with a top-quality list of domestic and international companies. Our experienced real estate team provides owners and occupiers with a comprehensive service spanning all aspects of property and land management, including leasing, tenancy and other rights of use in relation to residential, commercial and industrial properties. We also provide commercial tenants and owners with advice on commercial leases. Recent examples of our work include:

• Advising on the leasing of premises in shopping centres, including Olympian City at Olympic Station, MegaBox at Kowloon Bay and the Dragon Centre at Sham Shui Po;
• Acting for clients that include Dairy Farm Group in connection with leasing shops in Hong Kong to Wellcome, Mannings, 7-Eleven and IKEA;
• Assisting Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited with the leasing of its headquarters (Shop and Office Tower) in Central, including negotiating highly complex commercial terms.

Our aim is always to avoid disputes before they arise by working with you to make clear the duties and responsibilities of all parties. However, in the event of disagreements, we can also help to resolve disputes as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.

If you would like to discuss how we could help you with landlord and tenant issues, we would be delighted to hear from you.
