Real Estate Law & Commercial Leases

Real estate is a major cost and asset item for businesses and investors. As such, it requires a rigorous legal approach, both complementary to and essential for the economic strategy of transactions.

IDEACT advises on commercial and investment real estate matters, working with property owners, institutional and non‑institutional landlords, tenants, retail brands, economic operators, hotel operators and private investors. We support them at every stage of real‑estate projects, both in legal structuring and in securing contractual relationships.

Whether negotiating a commercial lease that is decisive for the business, or structuring acquisitions (indirectly through the acquisition of shares in companies holding a real‑estate asset, or directly in close collaboration with notaries), we support our clients in designing and securing their transactions.

• Commercial & professional leases: drafting and negotiating leases, renewals (capping/uncapping rent), managing notices and eviction indemnities.
• Transactions: assignment of lease rights, transfer of interests in real‑estate civil companies, structuring property acquisitions (liaising with notaries and banks).
• Real‑estate litigation: tenancy disputes (collection, commercial eviction, notably relating to rent setting, refusal to renew, or early termination), sale disputes, defects and court‑ordered expert appraisals, particularly in construction matters.

IDEACT has recognised expertise in real‑estate law, both in dispute resolution and in supporting contractual and transactional matters. We regularly handle complex disputes relating to commercial leases, contract performance and real‑estate transactions, and, upstream, we structure and secure real‑estate projects. This dual practice enables us to offer a cross‑disciplinary approach underpinned by strong mastery of the risks and issues specific to real‑estate operations.
