Description

The Agreement to Share Office Space between Attorneys or Other Professions is a legal document designed for attorneys in Massachusetts who wish to share leased office space while maintaining separate practices. It outlines key features, including the sharing of office premises, duration of the agreement, and the financial responsibilities for shared and individual expenses. Both parties agree to share the costs of overhead on a prorated basis, while keeping their client bases and income distinct. The form indicates that the partnership nature does not exist between sharing attorneys, ensuring that each party is responsible for their own professional fees. The document restricts the use of the space to legal practice only and mandates written consent for any changes or assignments of interest. This agreement is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and associates seeking efficient use of office space while clarifying financial and operational responsibilities. Paralegals and legal assistants can assist in the preparation and management of the agreement, ensuring that all terms are adhered to correctly. Filling instructions emphasize clarity in listing expenses and roles to avoid any misunderstandings.
