Which limitation is typically imposed on licensees preparing leases?

• A. They may modify forms to suit client
• B. All questions must be referred to an attorney, forms may not be modified, and lease periods cannot exceed one year
• C. Leases can last longer than one year with approval
• D. They may draft leases without supervision

Answer: (B)

The key idea is protecting clients and licensees from drafting by someone who isn’t an attorney. When licensees prepare leases, the standard approach is to use approved forms as-is, refer any legal questions to an attorney, and keep lease terms to a maximum of one year unless an attorney approves a longer term. This helps ensure the document reflects current law and reduces the risk of unenforceable or improperly drafted provisions.

That’s why this choice is the best: it consolidates the usual safeguards—no modifying forms, attorney involvement for all questions, and a one-year limit on lease terms. Other options would allow modifying forms, drafting without supervision, or longer terms without proper legal review, which aren’t consistent with the typical limitations placed on licensees.
