Advice & Support in the Vibrant World of Tourism & Leisure

With an estimated value rising to £257 billion by the year 2025, the UK’s tourism industry is one of the nation’s fastest growing sectors. As a result, its significance is growing too - in terms of the economy, further employment prospects and the opportunity for businesses, both new and existing, to expand, launch or diversify.

For tourism and leisure businesses

From advising on the establishment of new developments to purchases of commercial sites, Wilkin Chapman solicitors have a breadth of experience and expertise within the tourism and leisure sector.

We have advised on establishing new developments such as hotel complexes and on the purchase of many commercial sites such as pubs, restaurants and garden centres. When considering refinancing, we have the legal experts in place and excellent contacts with all the local banks.

We also provide a comprehensive service for existing businesses with our HR support and advice line, and help from our experts in employment law, licensing, regulation, debt recovery and disputes.

We also advise many accommodation providers from the independent guest houses to large hotels chains. With our broad range of legal advisers, our service is tailored to suit every client’s need.

Our expertise within the sector

Our knowledgeable team here at Wilkin Chapman immerses itself within the sector. We have made it our business to attract solicitors who are experts in this sector, who know the industry on a professional and personal level and, as a result, understand the issues and can offer holistic solutions for our clients.
