This form provides clear guidelines on the sharing of premises, specifying the duration of the agreement, which is typically annual and can be terminated with 45 days written notice. It establishes that the parties maintain separate businesses, and any legal services exchanged are not to create liability between them. Key financial responsibilities, including the prorated share of monthly expenses like rent and utilities, are well defined, alongside individual costs each party must cover.

For the target audience of attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, this agreement serves as a valuable tool for collaborative workspace use, reducing overheads while ensuring mutual clarity on financial and operational responsibilities. By outlining the rights and obligations of each party, it helps prevent misunderstandings and fosters a professional environment conducive to legal practice.
