Early Lawyer Engagement for Leases

Retaining experienced legal counsel early in the commercial leasing process is probably the smartest and most cost-effective strategy that you could make (irrespective of your being landlord / lessor, tenant / lessee, subtenant, owner, developer or investor). The cost savings cannot be fully quantified, since a skilled lease lawyer will negotiate out expensive lease conditions and clauses, while establishing the basis for a more amicable business relationship where all of the parties clearly understand and respect their obligations under the lease agreement.

You should never wait until the final lease agreement is about to be drafted and reviewed to engage legal counsel (although if you are at this stage, we are capable of minimizing your legal exposure and, where possible, re-negotiating injurious lease provisions that had been unwittingly agreed upon). Instead, you should be looking to engage the right lease lawyer at the very outset of the process, even if its simply to get their preliminary thoughts over the telephone. In my own professional experience, people are pleasantly surprised by how much benefit they receive from contacting myself at the outset of the lease process and quickly realize that the benefits of knowledge and experience are put to best use when retained at the beginning of the commercial leasing process.

For knowledgeable and experienced legal representation in negotiating, reviewing and drafting lease agreements, and protecting your business’ legal rights thereunder, contact lease lawyer Christopher Neufeld at 403-400-4092 [Alberta], 905-616-8864 [Ontario] or Chris@NeufeldLegal.com.
