A lease is a written agreement ordinarily used in the rental of property. It is a contract specifying what is required of the one who leases (lessee), and the one who is the property owner (lessor). This can be used for apartment rentals, use of equipment, and storage space among other possibilities. It does happen now and then the lease contains stipulations that are not legally enforceable (For example, the lease may insist that any disputes be handled through arbitration, which is against a state’s law).

A group legal plan has its limitations. The legal network of attorneys does not necessarily cover all types of law. There are some very unique sectors such as intellectual property that require an attorney with highly specialized skills. Plan vendors will make up any shortcomings by promoting the possibility of referrals outside of the network. That sounds great, but there is a catch to all of this. A person may be stepping into serious financial quicksand with any of the referrals.
