Leasing Commercial and Industrial Property

The success of a business is greatly aided by finding suitable premises at a competitive rate. If you are the Tenant, you need to be aware of many issues that affect your ability to operate your business on those premises. If you are the Landlord, you need to protect your assets in unforeseen circumstances. Both parties should seek legal advice on the terms of the lease.
