Why I am Selling this Guide
May 16, 2011 By Leave a Comment
You might wonder why I am selling this guide rather than giving it away. A wise man once said, “you can give a T-shirt away, and it becomes a car wash rag. You can sell that same T-shirt for $15.00, and people will wear it.” I want you to read this guide, which I think is more likely to happen if you spend a few bucks on it than if I gave it away.

“Simply put, you want Paul D’Arelli on your team when you’re doing a sustainable project. He’s one of the nation’s finest attorneys for complex legal questions surrounding sustainability and building certification. So-called “green lawyers” are a dime a dozen; they join the USGBC, they print double-sided and they cheerlead for sustainability. In that sense, Paul is unquestionably, not a “green lawyer.” As evidenced by his work “Negotiating Leases in the Era of Green Building,” he sees his role as a risk manager and he provides critical, insightful answers and thought provoking questions that drive to the heart of the matter.”

“This guide places D’Arelli firmly at the forefront of legal practitioners wrestling with green real estate. This clear, informative and no-nonsense work is a first indication that green real estate thinking is finally maturing beyond pleasant exhortations and business acquisition marketing for attorneys (and many others). The audience for this work is clearly not lawyers, though I dare say that many of them can benefit from it as well. Owners, developers, development managers, governmental authorities, risk managers, design professionals and a vast array of other stakeholders should be thankful that D’Arelli chose to speak plainly and directly as only someone with deep knowledge in the area can. Anyone involved in the world of green real estate should put this guide on their must read list and we can only hope that D’Arelli’s message to “Go Green” with our eyes wide open finds the widest audience possible.”

Managing Risk and Merging Expectations in Pursuit of the Deal

This informative 42-page guide provides a “plain English” presentation of issues and concepts that must be considered by landlords, tenants and their representatives in this new era of sustainability where traditional leasing is intersecting with green building pursuits and requirements.
Rather than attempt to move the industry toward some new model of green leasing – a difficult proposition given the variation in local leasing customs – this guide provides an issue-focused approach that can be used as a basis for informed negotiation geared toward accommodating the needs of the parties regardless of local lease preference.
This conversational guide, while written by an attorney who has been at the forefront of the green legal movement, is fortunately not a legal treatise but an easy read about an increasingly complicated subject.
