Retail, office and industrial leases carry long-term financial obligations. Lawyers negotiate terms such as rent reviews, outgoings, make-good and guarantees, and act in purchases and sales of commercial property.
Commercial leases and purchases lock in costs for years. Terms like outgoings, make-good and guarantees can decide whether a business survives.
Retail leases are protected by state retail leases legislation, which regulates disclosure, rent reviews and minimum terms. Stamp duty and GST treatment vary by transaction and state.
Understand the next step
Identify whether the work concerns a purchase, sale, new lease, renewal or dispute. Intended use, guarantees and ongoing obligations should be discussed alongside the headline rent or price.
Clarify whether planning, tax, building-condition and finance advice require additional professionals.
Dandenong, Frankston, Cranbourne and Moorabbin span a broad search area. A firm’s suburb, meeting options and experience with your matter are more informative than the South East Melbourne label alone.
For commercial property & leasing, ask which parts of the work the firm handles itself and whether it has relevant VIC experience. Let the lawyer know if a property, employer, other party or existing proceeding is outside South East Melbourne. Your home address alone does not determine the applicable process.
Provide the address, parties and current contract or notice. Explain whether anything has been signed and identify every agreed date.
Ask which terms, searches and ownership questions will be reviewed. Explain finance, proposed use and any linked transaction.
Agree who communicates with agents, lenders and the other side. Confirm how documents are approved and what happens if the matter is delayed or disputed.
Separate legal fees from searches, registration, taxes and third-party expenses. Complex ownership, negotiations or a dispute may fall outside an advertised conveyancing price.
Ask for a written scope identifying the work you are authorising, the person responsible and when costs will be reviewed. If you only want advice on one step, say so before the firm begins wider work.
Seek review before signing where possible. Ask about the actual dates in your documents; cooling-off and completion arrangements differ across states and transactions.
In Victoria, the Magistrates' Court hears most criminal and minor civil matters, with the County Court and Supreme Court handling more serious cases. Residential tenancy, planning, building and discrimination disputes often go to VCAT. Lawyers are regulated by the Victorian Legal Services Board + Commissioner, which also handles complaints.
Good to know
Most states have retail leases legislation giving tenants extra protections, depending on the premises and use.
Most matters start in the Magistrates' Court. More serious cases go to the County Court or the Supreme Court of Victoria. Family law matters are heard by the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.
Practising certificates in Victoria are managed by the Victorian Legal Services Board. You can check a solicitor's status on its public register or by contacting it directly.
