A carefully crafted lease agreement is crucial to establishing a secure and trustworthy framework for both parties.

Client Examples in Commercial lease law

Raadgiver.dk has assisted many clients with commercial lease matters. Below are examples of anonymized cases we have advised on:

Café A ApS:
Café A ApS was preparing to open its first café in a modern retail space in a major Danish city. The landlord’s standard contract included a long non-termination period, unclear allocation of maintenance responsibilities, and a rent clause giving the landlord broad rights to adjust rent. Before signing, the café contacted Raadgiver.dk to review the agreement. After negotiations, we secured a revised lease with a shorter non-termination period, clear maintenance obligations, and a more predictable rent adjustment model. This provided the café with a legally sound and commercially sustainable lease without compromising the landlord’s interests.

Kontorhuset B A/S:
Kontorhuset B A/S owned a small commercial property with several office tenants. Over time, the leases had been created using different templates, email add-ons, and individual special terms. This led to uncertainty regarding cost allocation, renovation rights, and termination procedures. The landlord contacted Raadgiver.dk to establish a more consistent and professional contract framework. The result was a unified set of agreements that gave both landlord and tenants clear expectations, reduced disputes, and better alignment with insurance and operational requirements.

Detailvirksomhed C ApS:
Detailvirksomhed C ApS operated a specialty store in a prime retail location. The owners wanted to sell the business to a buyer interested in both goodwill and the lease. The contract contained an assignment clause, but with unclear conditions and the landlord’s right to refuse approval without explanation. The company contacted Raadgiver.dk to ensure the sale could proceed without losing the lease. After negotiations, we secured an agreement allowing the buyer to take over the lease on clear and predictable terms. The landlord gained financial security regarding the new tenant, and the seller completed the business sale without unnecessary risk.
