Commercial & Residential Leases

Premier Law provides comprehensive lease services for both commercial and residential properties throughout Florida.

We draft and negotiate commercial leases for retail, office, industrial, and mixed-use properties. Representation for both landlords and tenants, including buildout provisions, CAM charges, exclusivity clauses, renewal options, and assignment rights.

Residential Leases

Landlord Representation & Evictions

When a tenancy goes wrong, landlords need an attorney who understands both the law and the urgency. Whether you're dealing with nonpayment, lease violations, holdover tenants, or a tenant who refuses to leave, Premier Law provides direct, effective landlord representation throughout Florida.

Our team handles eviction proceedings from initial notice through final judgment and writ of possession, keeping the process moving efficiently and in compliance with Florida's landlord-tenant statutes.

Florida Eviction Law Compliance

Florida's eviction process has strict procedural requirements. A misstep in notice, timing, or court filings can restart the clock entirely. Our team ensures every step is done correctly the first time, so you recover possession as quickly as the law allows.

Portfolio Landlord Representation

We work with individual landlords and property management companies overseeing multiple units. Scalable representation with clear communication and efficient handling of multiple matters simultaneously.

Florida Land Trusts

Land trusts are one of many tools in Premier Law's real estate toolkit. In a Florida land trust, only the trustee's name appears in public records, while beneficiaries retain rights to use the property, receive income, and transfer interests directly to heirs.

These trusts can be incorporated into purchase, sale, development, or lease transactions as part of a broader strategy to provide privacy, flexibility, and asset protection.

Land trust formation and administration
Privacy protection through trustee titling
Probate avoidance strategies for real property
Asset protection planning using trust structures
Integration with purchase, sale, and development transactions

Title & Closing Support

For closings and title work, Premier Law works alongside Attorneys Key Title — a Florida-based title company with extensive experience in both residential and commercial real estate transactions. This relationship allows clients who need closing coordination to access title, escrow, and recording services through a trusted provider that understands how Premier Law structures its deals.

Attorneys Key Title handles title searches, title insurance, escrow services, and full closing coordination. This partnership gives clients who need it a seamless, end-to-end experience from contract through final recording — though our legal services stand independently of the closing process.

Title Searches & Insurance

Comprehensive title examination and title insurance to protect your investment from undisclosed liens or defects.

Escrow & Closing Coordination

Secure handling of earnest money and closing funds, document preparation, and recording from start to finish.

Surplus Funds Recovery

When properties are sold through mortgage foreclosure or tax deed sales, there are sometimes surplus funds remaining after the outstanding debts are paid. These funds rightfully belong to the former property owner, but recovering them requires navigating a specific legal process.

Premier Law helps clients identify and recover surplus funds from:

Mortgage foreclosure surplus funds
Tax deed sale surplus funds
State unclaimed funds

Home Buyers & Sellers

Commercial Investors

Developers & Builders

Landlords & Property Managers
