A growing creative agency approached us while negotiating a lease for larger office premises in Brixham. They were excited about the move but wanted to ensure that the lease terms supported their growth and did not expose them to unnecessary costs or obligations.
The proposed lease contained clauses on repairs, break rights, and dilapidations that required careful review. Our client’s priority was to secure flexibility for the future while avoiding potential pitfalls that could arise from unclear or overly onerous provisions.
We undertook a detailed review of the lease, advising on the implications of key terms and identifying areas where amendments would be beneficial. We then negotiated with the landlord’s representatives to secure changes that improved clarity around repair obligations, confirmed fair notice periods, and ensured the break clause would operate effectively if needed.
By addressing these issues before signing, our client entered into the lease with confidence. They now occupy a workspace that meets their needs today, with the flexibility to adapt as their business grows.
