4 Ways to Legally Protect your Commercial Property with the Right Attorney
Commercial property owners and managers often have legal challenges to contend with. Some may be easily taken care of alone, but others can present a genuine risk if not resolved properly, and therefore should only be handled by an experienced, knowledgeable attorney.
Drafting, Reviewing and Negotiating Leases
A commercial lease is far more complex than a residential one. In fact, this document provides the foundation for the operation of the property. Our attorneys can help ensure that the lease is drafted and executed properly to avoid problems down the line. And if disagreements do arise over the terms of the lease, we can help to negotiate, enforce, or modify the contracts to protect your interests.
Buying or Selling a Commercial Property
The purchase or sale of a commercial property is one of the largest financial transactions many individuals or companies undertake. And as expected, many legal complexities can be encountered throughout the process. These types of transactions involve much negotiation, documentation and regulatory compliance. We guide our clients through the process, from contract review and financing arrangements to closing.
Development and Zoning
If you’re looking to develop a new commercial property, redevelop an existing one, or change its use, you will need to deal with zoning laws and local regulations. We assist clients in understanding zoning restrictions, obtaining necessary permits, variances, conditional use permits, and working with planning boards to ensure your development plans align with local regulations. We can also help you understand potential liabilities, and ensure compliance with state and federal environmental laws.
Collection, Evictions and Property Management Litigation
When tenants default, break their leases, or cause property damage, evictions and damage recovery actions can be handled by our legal experts who understand procedural requirements and local laws. Additionally, issues like construction disputes during renovations or even liability claims due to accidents on the property can be costly if you are not represented by an experienced attorney.
