Real Estate Transactions
Our attorneys have the expertise and experience to provide comprehensive representation to meet our clients’ needs across all commercial real estate asset classes. We handle dispositions, acquisitions, leasing and land development of commercial real estate and 1031 exchanges for all real estate asset classes. Our attorneys possess a deep understanding of legal, business, tax, and market dynamics, adding value and efficiencies to the transactions our clients are involved in.
Many of our real estate clients are retail tenants and landlords, and our real estate transaction attorneys also assist business clients with industrial and office properties.
Our attorneys devote the same level of attention to detail to each of our clients’ varied real estate matters—from simple transactions to the most complex and challenging matters. We represent a broad range of regional clients, including developers, owner/operators, industry entrepreneurs, institutional investors and more. Our real estate attorneys collaborate closely with the firm’s Mergers and Acquisitions, Tax, Trusts and Estates and Charitable Nonprofit departments, adding value to the plans and transactions being implemented for succession planning, estate planning, philanthropist goals, religious institutions and nonprofit organizations. Our attorneys possess connections with industry contacts, including CPAs, lenders, title and escrow companies, brokers, environmental consultants, and contractors, necessary to expertly and efficiently close our client’s deals.
