Commercial Lease
Florida
What's the force majeure clause in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of signing a commercial lease for my business. I am concerned about the implications of force majeure clauses in the lease and would like to understand them better. I have read through the clause, but am not sure if it covers all of the situations that may arise and if there are any additional considerations that I need to take into account. I would like to understand the full implications of the clause and any additional steps I should take to protect myself.
Moss S.
Force majeure is a provision that usually allows either party to delay completing an obligation in a lease. Force majeure is described as an act that is beyond the control of either party, such as a natural disaster, terrorism, or pandemic.

Need flat rate to do sub lease Kiosk at mall in Miami
Renting Kiosk as a sub leaser, need to verify contract and seeking a Flat rate.
Moss S.
I have been a commercial real estate attorney for over 30 years. I can review the agreement, and negotiate and draft any revisions. Considering it is in a mall, I am guessing that it is with a major retail landlord which would require review of the underlying lease. I can give you a flat rate once you request a proposal.

What's the parking situation in a commercial lease?
I am currently in the process of signing a commercial lease for a retail store and I need to know the parking situation that is included in the lease. I have read through the lease and I'm not sure if the parking is included or if I have to arrange it myself. I need to know if I will be able to provide adequate parking for my customers and employees.

The only way to answer this question is to have an attorney read the lease.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
