About the National Association of Shopfitters

The National Association of Shopfitters is a trade body representing it's members, with core values of promotion, support and development. Holmes & Hills partner with the organisation to support and develop legal knowledge of its members through talks and training. Our construction solicitors also offer free initial advice and fixed-fee offers to members of NAS.

Free initial consultations for National Association of Shopfitters members

This conversation provides members with the opportunity to raise any general legal concerns with a specialist solicitor.

Fixed-fee contract reviews and drafting for National Association of Shopfitters members

Holmes & Hills offers members fixed-fee services for the review and or drafting of contracts. Whether you are wanting to understand the legal risks you will face and commitments you will be making as part of signing a new contract, or you wish to strengthen, or introduce, your own terms and conditions, Holmes & Hills can advise and assist you for a fixed, preferential fee rate. Fixed-fee contract reviews are a popular service among sub-contractors who wish to limit their legal and financial risk.

Preferential and success-linked fee structures

Holmes & Hills experience of dealing with interior fitout contractors provides them a wealth of experience successfully dealing with the issues contractors are presented with. This experience allows for, where appropriate, Holmes & Hills to agree with members a success-linked fee structure whereby, for example, a member only pays a legal fee in the event Holmes & Hills is successful in recovering monies owed.

Such arrangements are considered and agreed on a case by case basis and such arrangements will always be subject to consideration of the facts available.

Access to legal training from specialist construction solicitors

Holmes & Hills Solicitors periodically provides a range of construction law training to National Association of Shopfitters members. Members are contacted in advance of each training session with an invitation to join online, or in person. Members can contact Holmes & Hills’ Construction Division at any time to organise additional bespoke training.
