LawDepot's Lease Amending Agreement:

  • Is used to amend an existing lease. The original lease remains in effect, but one or more changes are made to that lease.
  • Is a comprehensive, easy-to-use, and inexpensive alternative to hiring a legal professional to draft a Lease Amending Agreement or a new lease.
  • Must be signed by all parties to the original lease, in order to be valid.

If you wish to amend a contract or agreement other than a lease, use our Amending Agreement. If you wish to assign the lease to a different tenant, use our Lease Assignment.
