Description

The Agreement to Share Office Space between Attorneys or Other Professions is a legal document tailored for professionals in Florida looking to share office premises. This form outlines the specifics of office sharing, including the sharing of furniture and equipment necessary for conducting respective law practices. Key features include the duration of the agreement, which can continue year-to-year and allows for termination with proper notice, ensuring flexibility for the parties involved. It clarifies the non-partnership nature of the relationship between the shared attorneys, stating that client income remains separate, thus avoiding any potential conflicts. Monthly expenses are shared based on the professional fees earned by each party, covering rent, salaries, office supplies, and utilities, while distinguishing individual expenses that each party must pay separately. It restricts the use of the premises solely to legal practices and outlines the ownership rights over the lease and associated equipment.

Paralegals and legal assistants can also utilize this agreement to better understand the shared office dynamics and expense management.
