Wartan Published in Illinois Restaurant Association Newsletter
Taft Food and Beverage chair, Patrick Wartan, published an article, “Top Five Restaurant Lease Considerations” in the April 2019 issue of the Illinois Restaurant Association newsletter.
The article outlines the daunting task restaurateurs face in negotiating a lease after months of searching and touring spaces to find the perfect spot for their new restaurant concept.

- Licensing/Permitting; Contingencies; and Termination Rights
- Use Clauses and Exclusivity
- Guarantees
- Permitted Transfers / Assignability
