Fennemore, Denver

Represented a law firm in subleasing excess office space in downtown Denver following a merger and acquisition.
Objective was to eliminate redundant office footprint and reduce overhead.

Denver’s downtown office market was extremely soft—characterized by high vacancy and commoditized office towers.
The client had two offices post-acquisition and needed to dispose of one quickly.
Sublease market was saturated, especially for traditional office space like legal suites.

Partnered with a strong local brokerage team to aggressively market the space.
Offered minimal pass-throughs and a low, flat rental rate to drive interest.
Specifically targeted other law firms for an easier plug-and-play solution.

Successfully secured a backfill tenant—another law firm—for the full remaining term.
Despite a lower face rate, the deal minimized financial exposure and avoided long-term vacancy.
Achieved success in one of the most challenging office environments by prioritizing speed and strategic positioning.
