What is a Dental Office Lease?

A dental office lease is a type of commercial lease agreement a dental practice owner will sign with a landlord to rent the commercial space needed to run their dental practice. This type of lease will typically last for 5 to 10 years since there may need to be a significant investment in the buildout of the space and equipment.

Dental lawyers specialize in helping the owners of dental practices, including reviewing their commercial lease and handling contract negotiation.

Common Terms in a Dental Office Lease

Dental office leases can vary based on their terms, but below are some common terms you may find:

Rental Amount and Increases

This section will outline the monthly rent amount as well as outline rent increases that may be part of the contract.

Term of the Lease

This section will cover how long the lease will last, which is typically between 5 to 10 years for a dental practice.

Improvements and Modifications

This section will cover how the tenant can make modifications and improvements to the space. Given dentist offices typically require a lot of custom buildouts and equipment, this section of the dental office lease is particularly important.

Maintenance and Repairs

This section will cover who is responsible for making repairs and maintaining the office space. This is also important given the uniqueness of dental equipment and facilities.

Insurance and Liability

This section will outline the insurance requirements for the tenant and landlord. This may include malpractice insurance, property insurance, and general liability insurance. The landlord will want to require insurance to make sure the dental practice is covered and can continue to pay rent in case of any accidents or issues.

Compliance

This section will ensure the tenant complies with any relevant regulations, like HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability) and health and safety regulations.

37 Yrs Experience

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin Law School. Upon graduation, I went to McDermott, Will & Emery in Chicago and practiced corporate, real estate and tax law. I then joined Godfrey & Kahn where I became a shareholder in the real estate group, head of real estate lending and continued to practice corporate law. At these firms, I received excellent training and represented some of the largest and most innovative clients in the US. After practicing law for 15 years, I founded a real estate development company. I built a multi-million dollar company and developed many significant projects. I sold the company and was recruited for senior positions by two other real estate companies. I continued to hone my legal skills at these companies by negotiating and drafting countless documents for my businesses. The combination of my legal and business experience helps me foster the growth of clients' businesses, solve their problems and guide them through difficult matters.

Ryenne S.

Principal Attorney
Free Consultation
Chicago, Illinois
16 Yrs Experience
Licensed in IL
DePaul University College of Law

My name is Ryenne Shaw and I help business owners build businesses that operate as assets instead of liabilities, increase in value over time and build wealth. My areas of expertise include corporate formation and business structure, contract law, employment/labor law, business risk and compliance and intellectual property. I also serve as outside general counsel to several businesses across various industries nationally. I spent most of my early legal career assisting C.E.O.s, General Counsel, and in-house legal counsel of both large and smaller corporations in minimizing liability, protecting business assets and maximizing profits. While working with many of these entities, I realized that smaller entities are often underserved. I saw that smaller business owners weren’t receiving the same level of legal support larger corporations relied upon to grow and sustain. I knew this was a major contributor to the ceiling that most small businesses hit before they’ve even scratched the surface of their potential. And I knew at that moment that all of this lack of knowledge and support was creating a huge wealth gap. After over ten years of legal experience, I started my law firm to provide the legal support small to mid-sized business owners and entrepreneurs need to grow and protect their brands, businesses, and assets. I have a passion for helping small to mid-sized businesses and startups grow into wealth-building assets by leveraging the same legal strategies large corporations have used for years to create real wealth. I enjoy connecting with my clients, learning about their visions and identifying ways to protect and maximize the reach, value and impact of their businesses. I am a strong legal writer with extensive litigation experience, including both federal and state (and administratively), which brings another element to every contract I prepare and the overall counsel and value I provide. Some of my recent projects include: - Negotiating & Drafting Commercial Lease Agreements - Drafting Trademark Licensing Agreements - Drafting Ambassador and Influencer Agreements - Drafting Collaboration Agreements - Drafting Service Agreements for service-providers, coaches and consultants - Drafting Master Service Agreements and SOWs - Drafting Terms of Service and Privacy Policies - Preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries - Drafting Employee Handbooks, Standard Operations and Procedures (SOPs) manuals, employment agreements - Creating Employer-employee infrastructure to ensure business compliance with employment and labor laws - Drafting Independent Contractor Agreements and Non-Disclosure/Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements - Conducting Federal Trademark Searches and filing trademark applications - Preparing Trademark Opinion Letters after conducting appropriate legal research - Drafting Letters of Opinion for Small Business Loans - Drafting and Responding to Cease and Desist Letters I service clients throughout the United States across a broad range of industries.

"Ryenne is awesome, thorough and professional. She spent 2 hours going through the lease agreement line by line and called out things that we would not have considered, in spite of my wife also being an attorney in a different discipline. We would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again."
