Wajid Akbar
Consultant Solicitor

I am an experienced Commercial Solicitor, having qualified in 2017. Since then, I have honed my expertise in all aspects of commercial law at one of the largest property firms in the West Midlands, before joining Setfords. My practice is characterised by a deep commitment to understanding and addressing my clients' commercial needs while delivering precise and relevant legal advice.

I specialise in:

  • Commercial Property purchase and sale
  • Complex Conveyancing
  • Commercial Lease
  • Rent Deposit Deed
  • Authorised Guarantee Agreement
  • Advice on Personal Guarantee
  • Option Agreement
  • Business Sale Agreement
  • Sub-sale
  • Adverse Possession
  • Grant of Easement
  • Franchise Agreement
  • Partnership Agreement
  • General Contract Law
  • Development Loans
  • Transfers of equity
  • Deeds of Variation
  • Auction matters

One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is the challenge of integrating complex commercial arrangements into well-structured contracts. This requires not only legal acumen but also a strategic understanding of the business landscape, ensuring that the contracts I draft are both legally sound and commercially viable.

Beyond my professional life, I am a devoted family man who cherishes spending time with my sons. I also partake in various fundraisers for charity. My interests extend to sports, where I am an avid Manchester United fan and enjoy following Formula 1, cricket, and snooker.
