Commercial Leasing

A commercial lease is one of the most important agreements a business enters into and often represents one of its largest long-term financial commitments.

Westgrove Law helps navigate the complexities of commercial leasing by delivering business-focused solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs. This ensures parties enter well-structured lease agreements that foster productive and ongoing relationships.

We advise landlords and tenants across office, retail, industrial and mixed-use properties, from single-location leases to multi-site portfolios. Whether you are negotiating a new lease, renewing an existing agreement, or addressing complex lease-related issues, we provide strategic legal guidance to protect your interests and minimize risk.

We prepare and negotiate a wide range of primary and ancillary lease documents, including:

Offers to lease or term sheets
Comprehensive commercial lease agreements
Long-term (e.g., 99-year) ground lease agreements for development projects over fee simple and Indigenous lands
Renewal and extension agreements
Assignment, sublease and termination agreements
Subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements
Estoppel certificates
Indemnity and guarantee agreements

A commercial lease requires careful consideration of legal, financial and operational factors. Our deep understanding of B.C.’s real estate market allows us to deliver practical, business-oriented solutions that support long-term success.
