Legal Assistance with Negotiating a Commercial Lease

Legal Assistance with Negotiating a Commercial Lease in San Diego

Why should a business consider legal assistance with negotiating a commercial lease?  The commercial lease of any business is one of the most substantial costs of their monthly budget.  The quality and effective layout and use of their office or business space has a substantial impact on the profitable operations of the business itself.

The most important thing to know about a commercial lease in San Diego is there is no “standard” commercial lease here in San Diego.  In fact, the general perspective from our Courts is “The Lease is the Law.”  If it isn’t in the lease document, there is no legal basis to mount a dispute.

Commercial landlords are skilled and experienced negotiators and often employ real estate attorneys to ensure that they get the best deal from tenants.  Doesn’t your business deserve the best representation and negotiation skills possible to ensure that your commercial lease supports and serves your company, instead of simply adding expense to the business each month?

The experienced and effective real estate attorneys at the Watkins Firm have decades of expertise providing legal assistance with negotiating a commercial lease.  We work to understand our client’s needs and objectives, and then negotiate aggressively to help them to receive the best possible deal on the home of their business for the months and years to come.

We challenge not only the cost per square foot, but the services, utilities and amenities included in the terms of the lease.  If modifications are required for occupation, it is often in our client’s interests to move that expense to the books of the building owner, instead of having to use valuable operating capital to manage the construction and modifications.  The quality of insulation, tinting, and efficiency of HVAC units will make a substantial impact on the cost of utilities each month.
