Real Estate Legal Services for Dental Professionals

The location of your dental office impacts everything from patient traffic and referral patterns to overhead costs and future growth potential. Whether you’re launching a new practice, expanding to multiple locations, or transitioning through a sale, the real estate component is often one of the largest and most complex aspects of the transaction.

In Los Angeles, where commercial space is highly competitive and lease terms can be intricate, having a legal team that understands both real estate and the dental industry is essential.

Polished Legal represents dentists at every stage of their real estate journey, including:

• Commercial Lease Negotiations: Reviewing, negotiating, and drafting leases to protect your interests and reduce risk.
• Lease Assignments and Renewals: Ensuring smooth transitions during practice sales or expansions.
• Space Sharing Agreements: Structuring shared use of facilities to maximize efficiency and minimize conflict.
• Real Estate Purchases and Sales: Assisting with due diligence, purchase agreements, financing terms, and closing.
• Buildouts and Modifications: Addressing construction clauses, tenant improvements, and compliance with dental-specific regulations.
• Strategic Expansion Planning: Evaluating new locations and structuring agreements for growth.

Whether you are leasing your first space or acquiring multiple properties, Polished Legal ensures every agreement aligns with your business goals.

For many Los Angeles dentists, deciding whether to lease or purchase real estate is a pivotal business choice.

• Leasing offers flexibility, lower upfront costs, and ease of relocation, but can come with restrictions and future rent increases.
• Purchasing provides long-term stability and equity-building opportunities, but requires more capital and carries ownership responsibilities.

We guide dentists through both options, analyzing market conditions, financing, tax implications, and legal protections to make informed decisions.

The Los Angeles commercial real estate landscape is dynamic, competitive, and often fast-moving. Dental offices must consider:

• Zoning and regulatory compliance under California law.
• Parking and accessibility requirements.
• Buildout timelines and permitting.
• Landlord expectations and tenant improvement allowances.
• Market trends that affect rental rates and property values.

Our team understands the unique challenges of securing dental space in Los Angeles, from high-demand corridors to growing suburban markets.
