THE PROJECT
Our client was a large construction firm that was entering a lease in order to relocate their head office. The premises were in a newly constructed building and needed to be fitted out to suit our client’s needs.
HOW WE HELPED
We advised the client in relation to the lease, car parking licence and incentive deed, and assisted to negotiate these documents. On short notice, we then prepared a bespoke fitout agreement for the client to issue to prospective contractors so that the client’s fit-out would be completed on time and to standard, causing minimal disruption to our client’s business.
THE PROJECT
Our client is a subsidiary of a global chain of luxury retail stores located in shopping malls and large shopping centres. Our client was expanding their operations in Australia by entering into a lease for a retail shop in a newly renovated shopping centre, which included complex provisions relating to the rent and the fitout of the premises.
HOW WE HELPED
In this matter we advised on the disclosure statement and lease. We also assisted our client to negotiate amendments to the lease, which included an alternative arrangement to the usual rental provisions in retail leases and an amendment that allowed our client to licence the premises to third party licensee without going through extensive consent provisions, whilst maintaining their right to a fitout contribution.
