A recent example of how risk can be reduced in a lease

A client came to us late on in the process for a once over after being asked to sign the landlords standard form of commercial lease. On the surface, the terms looked standard.

A closer review identified:

- Full repairing obligations far wider than expected;
- A break clause that was unlikely to be effective in practice;
- Service charge exposure that had not been factored into costs.

By identifying and addressing these points before completion, the client was able to:

• Renegotiate key terms
• Cap their future liability
• Proceed with clarity and confidence

This is a common scenario. Small clauses can have significant consequences on your business if left unchecked.

NJB Legal focuses on identifying these risks early and dealing with them sensibly, allowing you to move forward knowing exactly where you stand.

Lease reviews & negotiations and why early advice matters

Commercial leases are often signed under time pressure but they can carry long-term financial and operational risk if not reviewed properly.

Common issues I see include:
• Repairing obligations that go far beyond expectations
• Rent review clauses that are unclear or one-sided
• Break clauses that don’t work when you need them
• Hidden liabilities passed to the tenant

NJB Legal helps businesses across Cheshire and the North West on commercial lease reviews and negotiations, ensuring the lease reflects the commercial deal actually agreed, not just the landlord’s standard position.

Early advice can:
• Reduce future cost and risk
• Strengthen your negotiating position
• Avoid disputes further down the line

If you are taking on new premises or renewing an existing lease a clear, commercially focused lease review can make a a big difference. Feel free to get in touch.
