Commercial Real Estate

A long-standing and robust area of expertise for our firm is our real estate practice. In this area we assist private and public investors, developers, owners, users, managers and lenders in structuring and completing real estate deals of all sizes and complexity. These transactions often involve our services in due diligence, negotiations, documentation, financing, construction, development, leasing, and dispositions.

We have extensive experience representing commercial and industrial developers, public and private corporations, financial institutions, insurance companies and other lenders, investment banks, private equity groups, contractors, REITs and REMICs, and individuals from across the nation.

While the emphasis of this practice area is on transactional and planning matters, it is backed by a stellar litigation team which has significant experience in the resolution of disputes involving real estate, creditor's rights, environmental and permitting matters. Beyond proceedings in state and federal courts, our attorneys have successfully managed many arbitrations, mediations and other forms of dispute resolution in the real estate industry.

Affordable Housing

Our firm offers substantial experience in the area of affordable housing. This is a complex area of real estate law, and few firms can match our depth of knowledge, contacts and regulatory insights in successfully guiding clients through the industry's requirements and opportunities. We have represented developers across a gamut of issues that include structuring transactions and financing, the selling and re-selling of tax credits, document preparation in compliance with tax codes, and interactions with regulatory agencies.

Golf and Resort Properties

We represent some of the largest golf and recreation companies in the United States and providing legal guidance in the acquisition and divestiture of many types of properties. Our services include negotiating and documenting the transaction and reviewing the many due diligence issues involved in the sale and management of these types of properties.
