About Our Company
About Great Lakes Audit Services
Great Lakes Audit Services provides a number of services, with contingency fee based retail lease audits as our main offering. We also offer lease language consultation and review, litigation support services, and lease administration outsourcing.
Our focus, first and foremost, is to recover as much of our clients’ money as possible, as quickly and efficiently as possible. To accomplish this, we work diligently and quickly to get audit claims settled for maximum savings. We also understand that we are representing our clients to the Landlord and other parties, and the quality and accuracy of our work directly affects that presentation. It is imperative to us that we represent our clients as not only knowledgeable about their Leases, but also firm and fair in their negotiations.
With over 20 years of experience in both the Landlord and Tenant arenas, our team has insight into all aspects of lease audit and lease administration. We have audited thousands of leases for a number of national retailers, and our industry knowledge is expansive, credible, and well-earned.
In addition to our industry experience, our team consists of business owners who understand the cost of running a business, and will fight for every recoverable dollar to maximize savings.
