Lease agreement in Luxembourg

The firm drafts and secures your Luxembourg lease, residential or commercial, compliant with the law and protective of your interests.

In short

A lease in Luxembourg sets the rent, service charges, rental deposit, inventory of fixtures, term and termination conditions. A residential lease falls under the law on residential leases, while a commercial lease is more contractual. The firm drafts either, generally within 3 to 5 working days.

Had a consultation with Me Cora Maglo about my Luxembourg Blue Card application. She explained everything clearly: the process, timeline and documents I need, and helped me with my wife’s family reunification too. Honest and practical advice. I felt confident after talking to her.

F. P.

J’ai beaucoup apprécié le service de Maître Maglo : son sérieux, sa sympathie, son professionnalisme et sa disponibilité. Toujours répondu rapidement et clairement, avec des conseils pragmatiques, sans pousser à des procédures longues et coûteuses lorsqu’elles ne sont pas justifiées.

N. W.

Super assistance and great support! Highly recommend. All my questions were answered, Cora and her team kept me updated all the time. I will definitely reach out to them next time for my residency.
