Federman represents sophisticated tenants in their lease negotiations for office space throughout the country. Our clients include international, national, regional and New York City companies having leases ranging in size and scope from large scale international headquarters to smaller regional offices in both urban office towers and suburban office parks. We represent many clients on a portfolio-wide basis, allowing us to assist them in establishing standard leasing practices, forms and procedures. Our extensive office leasing experience enables us to ensure that today’s highly detailed office leases address the particular needs of our clients. 

Guidance From Initial Letters of Intent Through Complex Lease Issues

Our representation often begins at the initial negotiation of a letter of intent where we assist our clients in addressing their critical business concerns at the outset of a proposed transaction. Many of our clients’ concerns involve construction and facility issues that require the practical knowledge obtained by our attorneys through their prior representation of office building owners and other tenants on leasing transactions with those building owners.
