A Different Kind of Commercial Real Estate Company
Why the language you use at a lease expiration determines the leverage you wield, the economics you unlock and the flexibility you carry into the next chapter of your business By Charles G. Fertitta Jr. For many companies, a lease expiration arrives quietly. A calendar reminder triggers a conversation with the landlord, a new rent number is exchanged, a document…
The commercial real estate market is the softest it has been in decades. For companies that occupy office, industrial or lab space, these conditions only cycle in about once a decade, so it’s the right time to be proactive about your lease even if you have a year or more left. Across nearly every market in the country, there is…

I have worked with the Hughes Marino team for over ten years, their knowledge of the office space market is extraordinary. They know all the players, and because they do so many deals and because of their depth of understanding of the market, I think Hughes Marino is able to help every tenant get the best deal possible.

We believe if you represent both plaintiffs and defendants there’s an automatic conflict, whether it be real or perceived. So it only made sense to choose Hughes Marino, a company that represents tenants only, to handle our lease negotiations in San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston and New York. With over 150 lawyers and 275 support staff, we have very specific space and technology requirements and Hughes Marino has the expertise to manage our leasehold improvements. We’ve certainly benefited from their tenant-only focus and full range of services. They are tireless in their efforts.
We have worked with Hughes Marino since 2007. Since that time they have assisted with over 10 lease negotiations, several build outs and multiple moves. They take the phrase “full-service” to a whole new level as experts in not only getting the deal done but helping the business remain productive during construction associated with moves and expansions. We look forward to continuing to grow with them.
