Description:
The Covid pandemic resulted in the Work From Home phenomenon, which continues today. High vacancy rates would seem to give tenants the upper hand, but this changing dynamic works in the tenant’s favor only if the tenant is strategic and knows what points to push when negotiating a lease.

Need a strategy? ATTEND THIS SEMINAR! Three seasoned leasing pros will do a strategic analysis and isolate those very significant legal and business provisions ("Top Ten") that have the greatest impact on a tenant negotiating an office lease in New York City.

Some examples include:

• Definition of premises
• Use
• Landlord's work letter/abatements
• Escalations
• Assignment and sublet -- exit strategies
• Security/Guarantees (Good Guy Guarantees)

Whether negotiating your own office lease or a lease for a smaller tenant, you will find an abundance of practical guidance in this CLE.
