About this course

In this online, on-demand course, HWL Ebsworth partner, Gary Newton, discusses the implications of recent cases in retail and commercial leasing, including false and misleading conduct in a disclosure statement in a retail lease, guarantors failing to sign a retail lease, lessor withholding consent to an assignment by a lessee in administration and lessor terminating a retail lease without notice. In addition, whether a signed and delivered commercial lease is  binding if the sublessor has NOT been asked to sign it is reviewed, along with the exercise of 'option to renew' by informal email.
