Commercial and Retail Leases in Sydney
At Abboud & Associates, our team prides itself on meticulously drafting and negotiating commercial and retail lease agreements as well as taking precautions to prevent and manage any disputes.
We assist clients with managing their leases in respect of a variety of properties including, commercial offices, industrial properties and warehouses, retail shops and hospitality venues.

Commercial Lease Negotiations and Documentation
Our Sydney team offers expert assistance with Commercial Leases. We review and negotiate lease terms to ensure they align with your business objectives and adhere to relevant legal requirements. Commercial Leases are quite different from Retail Leases in that tenants under Commercial Leases are not afforded the protections under the Retail Leases Act 1994 (NSW). This means that, as a tenant, you need a lawyer who is able to provide you with meticulous advice on your rights and obligations.
When it comes to Commercial Leases, our services include handling the preparation and drafting of Commercial Lease agreements, providing comprehensive advice on your rights and obligations under the lease and acting for you in respect of any disputes under the Commercial Lease. We take active steps to mitigate any potential risks and negotiate favourable terms.
We can also assist you with Commercial Lease renewals and variations to leases where necessary.
Retail Lease Agreements
Retail Leases are governed by the Retail Leases Act. If you are a landlord, there are certain disclosures which you must make in order to avoid adverse consequences which could leave you out of pocket. Tenants are also afforded certain rights under the Act which safeguard them from potential loss. You need a lawyer who is well versed with the Act to provide advice on these leases.
Our team is well versed with the Retail Leases Act and can ensure that Retail Leases are drafted such that they are compliant with the Act. Likewise, we provide comprehensive advice to tenants on their rights and obligations under Retail Leases and identify where such leases are not compliant with the Act. In the event of a dispute, our team is on hand to provide support through assisting with negotiations and representing you in Tribunal or Court proceedings.
We also assist with Retail Lease renewals and amendments to adapt to changing business needs, offering competitive and transparent pricing for our Retail Lease services.
