Possession of Business Premises

This text provides detailed treatment of how a landlord can obtain possession of business premises and how a tenant can oppose such an action and renew the lease. This edition has been updated to include changes introduced by the Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) Act 1995, as well as case law. Written from the litigator's point of view and practical in its approach, the book leads readers through the legal and procedural aspects of the subject; provides a clear and succinct explanation of the law, procedure to adopt, evidence required and orders the court may make; explains how a landlord or licensor can effect possession; deals with self-help and applications for new tenancies brought under the 1954 Act; shows how an occupant can prevent an order being made; places precedents throughout the text at key points; and supplies specimen forms, draft notices and pleadings.
