Case Study: Woods LLP achieves a swift, low‑disruption lease renegotiation in four months with Cresa

Litigation Experts Value Cresa's Tenant Representation Expertise

Woods LLP, a Montréal law firm occupying 16,000 sq. ft., engaged Cresa for tenant representation and Transaction Management to assess options before beginning office renovations. The firm’s brief was to evaluate all downtown relocation possibilities and renegotiate a lease extension only if price, value and building quality continued to reflect the firm’s image.

Cresa, led by Bruce A. Cowper, leveraged market alternatives to create negotiating leverage with the landlord and completed the lease re‑negotiation in four months with minimal disruption to the practice. The swift, market‑driven Transaction Management approach delivered a timely outcome and earned praise from Woods LLP’s managing partner for Cresa’s expertise and professionalism.
