"Michelle drafted an excellent and unique Post Nuptial agreement which outlines a very specific "process" that will be used to divide assets in the event of divorce. Since assets can change value daily, traditional "splitting an asset list" methods are often outdated within a week of signing. Michelle rose to the challenge at a very reasonable price. Other, "meter man" attorneys would have charged at least 5x more. I highly recommend Michelle!"

Hi, I'm Randy, and I've been practicing law for over 30 years with a genuine passion for contracts and legal drafting. I spent nearly 15 years running my own solo practice in Richmond, Virginia, where I built a thriving firm helping everyone from small business owners to entertainment professionals navigate their legal needs. Those years taught me that great contracts aren't just about covering all the bases legally - they're about understanding what my clients actually need and translating that into clear, enforceable agreements. My sweet spot is contract drafting across a wide range of areas. I've written hundreds of LLC operating agreements (both single and multi-member), prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, residential and commercial leases, independent contractor agreements, service contracts, NDAs, consulting agreements, and corporate formation documents. I also have extensive experience in estate planning documents - wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and living wills - plus employment agreements and entertainment law contracts. These days I'm based in New York City, but I work with clients nationwide on contract matters. What I love most about this work is taking complex business relationships and turning them into documents that actually make sense and protect everyone involved. Whether you're a startup founder needing your first operating agreement or an established business updating your contractor templates, I focus on creating contracts that work in the real world, not just on paper. After three decades of practice, I still get excited about a well-crafted contract. Let's talk about how I can help with yours.

Commercial Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Commercial Real Estate

Construction Agreement

Texas

Asked on Dec 10, 2024

Can a construction contractor terminate a construction agreement without cause?

I recently entered into a construction agreement with a contractor to renovate my commercial property. However, the contractor has been consistently behind schedule and the quality of work has been subpar. I am concerned about the progress of the project and the contractor's ability to complete it satisfactorily. I would like to know if the contractor has the right to terminate the construction agreement without cause, or if I have any legal recourse to hold them accountable for their performance and potentially terminate the agreement myself.

Lorraine C.

Answered Dec 11, 2024

That situation sounds frustrating, to be sure. The termination rights of both parties should have been clearly defined in the construction agreement. It would be best for you to have an experienced transactional attorney review the contract terms and discuss the issues you are having so that you can receive advice specific to your situation. Regardless, I highly recommend that you document any quality of work or performance issues in writing and with pictures, if applicable. That way, if you do decide to terminate the contract later (with an attorney's guidance), you will have the proof you may need to support your claim.

Commercial Building Lease

Florida

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

What's permitted use in a commercial lease?

I am in the process of negotiating a commercial lease for my business and I am interested in understanding the concept of "permitted use." Specifically, I am curious about what activities are allowed in the leased space and what limitations there may be. I would like to consult with a lawyer to ensure that the terms of the lease align with the needs of my business and that I am not at risk of violating any provisions.

Diane D.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

Permitted use means that you can only use it for the reason you rented it. For example, you cannot rent a place to use as a gym but then use it for a nightclub.

David H.

Answered Mar 18, 2022

Hello, my name is David hatch I am a Michigan license attorney. This question has several nuances to it. An investor is taking it over, it sounds like you're giving it to them but it's also being sold? That is unclear. It would be helpful to understand what type of indemnity the investor is seeking. It really depends upon the value of the property and the risk involved in the deal. Please let me know if you like additional assistance beyond this. I can help you out. Attorney Dave.

Commercial Lease

Maryland

Asked on Apr 27, 2023

What are the notice requirements for terminating the lease?

I am a business owner who recently signed a commercial lease for a property. I am looking to terminate the lease but am unsure of the notice requirements I must adhere to in order to do so. I would like to know what the notice requirements are for terminating the lease so that I can ensure I do not breach the terms of the lease.

Michael C.

Answered Jun 1, 2023

The notice requirements for terminating a commercial lease in Maryland are going to vary depending on the specific terms of your lease agreement. Please read and refer to your lease. If your lease is month to month, then it's likely you'll have to provide at least 30 days notice. If your lease is for a longer term (6 to 12 months), it's likely you'll have to provide at least 90 days notice, and may need to pay damages for breach of the lease agreement.

Commercial Lease

California

Asked on Apr 25, 2023

What is a commercial lease agreement and how does it work?

I am a business owner interested in renting a commercial space for my business. I am trying to understand the details of a commercial lease agreement and how it works so I can make an informed decision about whether or not to sign a lease. I am looking for information about the terms, conditions, and other relevant details that could affect my business.

MICHAEL B.

Answered Jun 2, 2023

A commercial lease agreement sets out the parameters of the space to be leased, including a description of the premises, an allocation of responsibilities for janitorial services, electrical services, tenant improvements, insurance requirements, payment of rent and payment of common area expenses, parking for employees and visitors, telephone and telecommunication services and many other issues.
