Jennifer Jones engages in a peer-to-peer conversation alongside Amy Altschuler of Lewis Roca to address issues that arise when tenants surrender the premises, either at the end of the term or earlier expiration. The hypotheticals will cover issues ranging from de-branding to removal of specialized equipment, as well as concerns relating to medical records and repair requirements. We will discuss creative ways to find the balance between landlord’s surrender requirements and tenant’s desire not to give it all away.
