Monardo Legal

Commercial & Retail Leasing

Lease drafting, review and negotiation for commercial landlords, tenants and retail businesses.

Our Ashfield lawyers assist clients with commercial & retail leasing across Sydney's Inner West and wider New South Wales.

Commercial and retail leases can create significant long-term obligations for landlords and tenants. Clear advice before signing can help identify financial, operational and legal risks and reduce the likelihood of costly disputes later.

Monardo Legal advises landlords, tenants, property owners and businesses on commercial and retail leasing across Ashfield, Sydney's Inner West and New South Wales. We take the time to understand the premises, the proposed use of the property and the commercial outcome the parties are seeking.

We can draft, review and negotiate letters of offer, agreements for lease, commercial leases and retail shop leases. Our advice can cover rent and reviews, outgoings, security deposits and bank guarantees, permitted use, fit-out obligations, incentives, make-good requirements, repairs and maintenance, insurance, assignments, subleases, relocation and demolition clauses.

For retail leasing matters, we can advise on disclosure obligations, minimum lease terms, key money restrictions and other requirements under the Retail Leases Act 1994 (NSW). We also assist with lease renewals, options, variations, surrenders, assignments and disputes concerning breaches, arrears, damage, access or termination.

Lease documents should reflect the commercial agreement and allocate risk clearly. Obtain legal advice before signing a letter of offer or committing to premises. Call Monardo Legal on (02) 8006 5244 to discuss a commercial or retail leasing matter.
