General Services Administration Lease Terminations: Lessor’s Rights and Responsibilities

Government Contracts attorneys Gordon Griffin, Robert MacKichan Jr. and Jeremy Burkhart authored an article featured in Pratt's Government Contracting Law Report focusing on lessors' rights and considerations when receiving a termination notice from the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). The article addresses how the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) initiative to contact tenant agencies with non-firm term leases in search of ways to reduce space usage has led to a wave of lease terminations. The authors also examine new GSA leadership, outline key rights for lessors facing termination notices and offer practical advice to help ensure a smooth process.

The attorneys previously published a Holland & Knight alert on this topic.
