Real Estate

Real estate transactions turn on timing, coordination, and risk allocation.

Clients turn to real estate counsel when buying or selling property, securing financing, renegotiating leases, or addressing issues that threaten a deal’s viability. These matters often involve significant capital, multiple stakeholders, and narrow windows for decision-making. Small missteps can delay closings, shift leverage, or expose parties to downstream disputes. We help clients move transactions forward deliberately, resolve friction before it escalates, and protect asset value when conditions change.

We guide clients through real estate transactions and related risk.

Transactions & Financing

  • Advise on commercial and residential acquisitions and dispositions
  • Structure and negotiate real estate financing, including acquisition and construction loans
  • Draft and negotiate commercial leases, amendments, and renewals
  • Counsel on development, conversion, and new construction matters

Risk Management & Dispute Resolution

  • Address zoning, land use, and entitlement issues affecting feasibility
  • Negotiate workouts and restructurings involving distressed properties
  • Handle real estate disputes, including those involving development and construction projects, when negotiation fails and enforcement is required
