Rating Business rates are now, more than ever, a significant cost to the occupier and seeking professional advice is paramount to ensure that occupational costs are kept to a minimum. How can we help? Our distinguished rating team can provide the necessary advice across all property types, including undertaking appeals inclusive of strategy, liability forecasting and more general advice. We can establish the likelihood of achieving a reduction and subsequently undertake an appeal on your behalf through the newly implemented Check Challenge Appeal system.
