Commercial Property Easement Agreement for Access Rights

Legal Definition

A legal instrument that establishes a non-possessory right to use a portion of another's commercial real property for specific access purposes, such as ingress, egress, or passage, typically documented in a deed or contract to ensure perpetual or term-based usage without transferring ownership.

In Plain English

A contract that gives a business or person the legal right to walk, drive, or otherwise cross someone else's commercial property for access, like a shared driveway or utility path, without owning that land.

Example in a Contract
