Leases – New precedent – Deed of amendment – unregistered lease

by

As a result of some helpful feedback from one of our subscribers in Queensland, By Lawyers has added a new precedent ‘Deed of amendment – Unregistered lease’ to all our Act for Lessor matter plans across the country. This deed can be used to record an agreed amendment to an unregistered lease. It includes the following key provisions:

  • Variation details – to be set out in either the operative provisions or in a schedule to the deed;
  • A clause to extend any guarantor covenants in the original lease to the amendments;
  • A clause confirming the terms of the original lease as amended.

At By Lawyers we value feedback from our subscribers and often enhance our publications as a result.

This new Deed is the latest addition to our library of over 6,500 precedents…and counting!

Formatting of By Lawyers deeds and agreements

by

Over the next month or so you will notice a minor change to the formatting of the By Lawyers precedent deeds and agreements.

By Lawyers has received and responded to feedback that the line under headings in deeds and agreements can be troublesome when users are customising precedents. The line under headings is currently a ‘top border’ applied to the 1st paragraph of the clause. We are swapping that line to a ‘bottom boarder’ of the heading paragraph, which is a more intuitive – and hopefully a less troublesome – place for the line formatting to be applied.

We all know formatting can be tricky. If you are having trouble please see our Tips and tricks for working with By Lawyers precedents, found in every publication, at the end of folder A. ‘Getting the matter underway’ on the matter plan. If you are still stuck – don’t hesitate to call or email us; our team is here to help you!
