I have a commercial business lease and a clause that was added and agreed upon by landlord to have work done to the premises. If that work is not done what action as a tentant can I take ?

Hi Natasha

We’ve assumed you had a lawyer review the commercial terms prior to signing the lease. If the commitment they made didn’t form part of the lease agreement then as a starting point you could write to the landlord and request they confirm the timeframe for when the work will be completed.

It is very important you seek sound legal advice and we’d recommended making contact with either

• Coutts Solicitors and Conveyancers - https://www.simplyaskit.com.au/profile/1286/coutts-solicitors-conveyancers

• Legal Vision - https://www.simplyaskit.com.au/profile/1240/legalvision


It’s also important you continue to meet your obligations under the terms of the lease, especially until you are able to establish your legal position

All the best and we hope it works out for you and your business
