Most commercial leases are complicated and riddled with legalese, so it pays to seek professional assistance whether you are considering offering, drafting, negotiating, or ending a lease.

Get expert advice early on.

Seeking legal advice from the outset is crucial when it comes to any commercial lease issue. At Resolute Lawyers, we offer strategic planning for the best course of action in your particular situation, and we can also assist in resolving all types of leasing disputes and issues.

New leases

It’s best practice to have a lawyer examine your lease before you offer it up for signing to ensure you know your rights and responsibilities. We can ensure that your interests are considered when you enter an agreement with a tenant – or anyone else you may be entering into a lease with.

Terms & Conditions

Every kind of lease will have certain terms and circumstances that must be followed, so it’s vital to fully understand your responsibilities, your rights, and any potential legal loopholes that might serve as a barrier – or an advantage.

End a lease

Leases can be difficult and expensive to break, and litigation involving property and business matters has a tendency to become costly and drawn out. However, you can be sure to secure the best possible result for your situation if you have Resolute Lawyers on your side.

Can I sue?

A lease is a contract between parties, and you can sue for breach of contract. Often, a lease dispute will need to come up before a arbitrator or before a court. Representing yourself in an arbitration or court is never a good idea.

Trying to resolve a lease dispute without the advice of a lawyer can lead to disappointing outcomes. At Resolute Lawyers, we can assist you with litigation for all leasing disputes.

I was highly impressed from the very first phone call I had with Anitesh. It was during the holiday season when most law firms were unavailable and he provided the reassurance I was looking for, with a deep understanding of construction dispute related law. My case had a strict deadline and he handled the whole case very professionally and got me the best outcome I could have wished for. I would highly recommend him to anyone for all legal matters.

Absolutely A1 service. I definitely recommend Resolute Lawyers. So glad when I was about to give up with a property matter I found Resolute Lawyers. We were kept informed throughout the process and gave us sound advice before we started. Couldn't be happier, a job others said was near impossible was completed in a short time frame and for a very reasonable cost. Thank you again for your fabulous service.

Resolute Lawyers assisted me with collecting a debt arising from a Disputes Tribunal order that a car dealership had delayed and avoided paying for more than six months. Anitesh provided clear advice on the process I should follow, explained each step, and outlined the risks involved. The way Anitesh handled the situation was consistently professional and demonstrated his extensive knowledge and experience in this area. The results speak for themselves — the dealer paid the debt in full, along with all application and processing fees incurred. I highly recommend Resolute Lawyers.
