Are your business practices violating consumer laws?

2021-07-21T17:37:59+00:00

In part one of a two-part series on consumer laws, we discussed the Consumer Sales practices Act (“CSPA”) and reviewed, generally, some rules that businesses should follow to have their best shot at keeping compliant under the CSPA. However, because the CSPA is technical and nuanced and its application is somewhat complicated and very fact driven, it is typically necessary to consult with an attorney to make sure you are protected. If that option is out of reach, one way to get familiar is to seek guidance at the Ohio Attorney General’s website.

Commercial lease checklist

2021-02-24T11:39:19+00:00

Commercial leases are very different from residential leases. They are typically set up so tenants cover things like insurance, property taxes, and maintenance. This structure is called a triple net lease. The tenant’s ability to negotiate can be somewhat difficult because landlords often want to offer their tenants the same rates. However, the market may help tenants negotiate more favorable terms if the space in question is not highly sought after. If that’s the case, a tenant could ask for more build out money or more parking spaces or even less base rent.  Additionally, if a landlord has a need to fill a spot quickly, that can be a time to try to negotiate your best deal.
