Commercial Lease Review & Drafting – Colorado
Before you sign a lease for your office, storefront, or warehouse in Grand Junction, make sure you know exactly what you’re agreeing to. Commercial leases are packed with legal language—and often written in favor of the landlord. At Trace Tyler Law, we help Colorado business owners understand their lease terms, avoid costly surprises, and negotiate smarter contracts from the start.
Commercial Leases Come with Fine Print—and Big Risks
Unlike residential leases, commercial agreements are negotiable and often highly customized. That means it’s easy to overlook terms that could come back to bite you—like triple net charges, repair responsibilities, or restrictions on how you use the space. Whether you're a first-time renter or expanding your operations on the Western Slope, having an attorney review or draft your lease is a smart move.
We work with clients in Grand Junction, Mesa County, Montrose, and throughout Western Colorado.
What’s Included in a Lease Review
When you send us a lease for review, we don’t just skim the legalese—we break it down in plain English so you know what you’re committing to. Here’s what we look for:
- Rent escalation clauses (and hidden costs like CAM fees)
- Repair and maintenance obligations
- Personal guarantee or default terms
- Termination and renewal conditions
- Zoning and permitted use language
- Sublease and assignment restrictions
If we spot red flags, we’ll explain your options and suggest edits or negotiating points. If your deal is time-sensitive, we’ll work quickly to meet your deadline.
Flat-fee reviews are available for most standard lease agreements.
Lease Negotiation & Drafting Support
Need help negotiating better terms? We’ll step in to advocate on your behalf—whether you're a tenant looking to revise unfair language, or a landlord needing a well-drafted lease that protects your property and complies with Colorado law.
We also help clients:
- Draft custom commercial lease agreements
- Create amendments or addendums
- Address breaches or early termination issues
- Mediate lease-related disputes if needed
Whether you’re on the landlord or tenant side, Trace brings a practical, business-minded approach that protects your interests while keeping things fair.
