In that role, he successfully handled numerous commercial leases negotiations and related matters for leases in mall and freestanding locations. In subsequent years, he has represented national retailers, independent retailers, property developers and corporations in leasing matters.

Knowing what can come out and what can stay in a lease can make all the difference during a lease negotiation. Louis I. Cole can draw upon his extensive experience to modify these provisions, pushing the other party just enough to obtain meaningful revisions without jeopardizing the deal.
