Commercial Lease Agreements, Renewals and Disputes

From the retail shop fronts to modern light-industrial units, commercial leases shape the viability of a business. Rising local rents and complex terms can put ventures at risk.

Our aim is to make sure the lease you sign protects your interests for the full term, and beyond.

We guide you through [business structuring] options that suit your goals, prepare and review sale and purchase agreements, and advise on partnership, joint venture, and shareholder arrangements so you start on solid legal ground. For established operators, we also assist with business succession planning, making sure your legacy is protected as circumstances change.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A commercial lawyer handles the legal matters that affect your business and commercial property, including contracts, lease agreements, business structures, sales and purchases, and negotiations with developers. We translate complex legal terms into practical guidance, so you understand exactly what you're agreeing to before you sign.

  • No. Developer contracts often contain clauses that favour the developer, including long settlement periods, conditional terms, and ongoing obligations that can catch landowners by surprise. Our advice is always to have a commercial lawyer review the contract before signing, so you can negotiate terms that protect your family, your assets, and your long-term position.

  • Yes. We provide fixed-fee upfront quotes for most commercial law matters so you know what you're paying from the start, with no surprise bills along the way.

  • Nar Nar Goon sits at the edge of Melbourne's growth corridor, which means landowners are increasingly approached by developers, infrastructure companies and government bodies with acquisition offers. These offers are almost always an opening position. We advise landowners on what their land is genuinely worth, their rights under the Land Acquisition and Compensation Act, and how to respond.

  • An option to purchase gives a buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy a property or business at a set price within a specified period. For Nar Nar Goon landowners, options are common when a developer needs time to secure a planning permit before committing to buy. An option is a legally binding document, and once signed you're locked in at the agreed price. We review option agreements to ensure the terms are fair before you sign.

  • Beyond the contract of sale, a business purchasing land for commercial or industrial use in Nar Nar Goon may need: a legal review of the planning permit pathway, an agreement with a builder or contractor for development, and potentially a lease or management agreement if the property will be tenanted. We advise on the full picture, not just the purchase contract.

  • Yes. Supply agreements set the terms under which goods or services are provided between businesses, delivery obligations, quality standards, liability caps, exclusivity and termination rights. Getting these terms right is particularly important for Nar Nar Goon businesses in primary industries or manufacturing, where supply chain disruption can be costly.

  • We aim to respond to all enquiries within one business day. You can call us on (03) 9707 1155, email admin@wslegal.com.au, or visit us at Unit 2/43 Rainier Crescent, Clyde North VIC 3978. Our office offers on-site parking and wheelchair accessible access.
