Focus on Preventing Disputes
Drafting ironclad leases and explaining the terms to all parties involved prevents future problems from arising. We negotiate and draft contracts that plan through conflict areas and lead to successful business relationships. We know how important it is to your business operations to avert disagreements. Some of the main leasing disputes involve:
- Common area maintenance — CAM charges depend on whether you have a triple net lease or a gross lease. Triple net leases require the tenant to pay for common area maintenance and are the most common commercial leases in California.
- Survival of conditions — Some terms in a contract can survive even after the contract expires.
- Signage agreements — Landlords are usually responsible for promoting their business in a certain way and want tenants to sign long-term signage agreements. Some tenants have disagreements about who will do what for promotional advertising.
- Affording monthly payments — When the economy is rough, paying rent can become a problem. Our lawyers will help negotiate new lease terms that will benefit both parties.
- Recapturing property — Landlords may have the right to recapture property and prematurely end a lease. If damage occurs to the building and the proper time period is given to make repairs, the tenant may have to fix the area or be subject to violating the agreement.
We can help all parties involved in a commercial lease maintain professional relationships and continue their path to success.
