FL Lease Waiver of Subrogation
FL lease subrogation waivers: mutual clause (landlord + tenant waive insurer’s recovery rights). Example: tenant fire, landlord insurer pays, can’t sue tenant. Benefits: relationship preservation, risk allocation, reduced legal costs. FL-specific: hurricane/flood/fire risks make waivers critical. Key: both notify insurers, endorsement may be needed, adequate property insurance required, and scope = mutual + limited to covered property damage (not personal injury/intentional). FL courts enforce as written. Every commercial lease should include.
