Our real estate development practice encompasses a wide range of issues involving real property, including:

Land use and zoning: We assist clients in navigating legislative, regulatory and political processes to select and acquire sites, and to successfully obtain entitlements and permits.

Commercial real estate: Our lawyers advise on all aspects of buying, selling and financing real estate, as well as ownership and development strategies for real estate development and investment.

Construction and construction litigation: We counsel owners, contractors and design firms to guide them through all stages of design and construction, from bidding and contracting to contract administration and claim avoidance. We also help with dispute resolution, including litigation, arbitration and mediation.

Leasing: We advise both landowners and renters as they navigate the complex world of commercial leasing.

Real estate litigation: Our group’s litigators focus on the resolution of real estate related disputes, and advise and assist our clients in contracting, risk identification and evaluation, risk avoidance, and pre-litigation and litigation strategies.

Funding and capital raises: Our group’s regulatory attorneys have extensive experience with the regulatory structure governing the type of financing so often used in real estate development projects. We can help guide you through the process so that you can rest easy knowing that your investors will be informed and happy.
