Legal advice for Flexible Offices.
The office environment has changed. Keep up with expectations by creating dynamic work spaces.
Retain talent, create competitive advantages and cut costs with flexible offices.
Today’s businesses require safe office environments that attract and retain their best people. Our lawyers can help you set up a co-working space that is right for your commercial needs.
From business start-ups and growing SMEs to international corporations, there is now an established and growing demand for flexible offices which allow businesses to expand and contract their property requirements to suit business needs. These spaces include 24/7 access to meeting rooms, stylish business lounges, free Wi-Fi and managed receptions.
Options include long- and short-term flexible office contracts, hot-desking, co-working space and virtual offices to ensure providers can attract and retain businesses as their space needs change.
We have long been advocates for co-working spaces.
We have expertise across a wide range of property matters, and the experience of acting for owners, operators and tenants. We have been acting for flexible workspace providers since long before the concept gained the momentum it has today. Now, we see the market being shaped by the development in technology and tenants’ changing requirements and expectations.
We are familiar with the challenges that operating a co-working space entails, such as:
- Advising on and negotiating heads of terms to ensure all commercial points are agreed up front
- Advising on terms and conditions, membership agreements, virtual office terms and licences for the use of your workspace
- Drafting and negotiating management agreements and joint venture arrangements
- Advising on and negotiating revenue-linked leases
- Advising on professional team appointments and fitting out contracts
- Resolving property or construction disputes
- Securing possession of office space and recovering debts
- All other aspects of operating a flexible workspace, including corporate advice, employment contracts, GDPR compliance and IP rights
We helped Orega secure a prestige London location at 80 Strand.
Find out how we helped this leading flexible office provider secure 80 Strand.
80 Strand is an iconic building. Formerly ‘Shell Mex House’, you can find 80 Strand next to The Savoy and overlooking the Thames. It’s a landmark that is approaching its 100th anniversary on the London skyline: a fitting addition to Orega’s portfolio and the pinnacle of what the team there have achieved alongside RWK Goodman.
“The serviced office market continues to be a rapidly changing but exciting environment to work in. We have worked with RWK Goodman since the company’s creation in 2001 when we acquired our first office centre. The depth of their understanding of our business and breadth of expertise the firm can offer has enabled us to maintain our position in the market.”
