Commercial Real Estate

Since the inception of our firm, we have evolved with the changing local real estate market. Over the past seven decades we have helped clients respond to market forces and have assisted clients in taking advantage of alternative financing sources, dealing with overbuilt markets, and complying with a complex body of local, state, and national environmental laws.

We work with developers, owners, property managers, tenants, financial institutions, and investors in all types of transactions, from routine purchase agreements to complicated development plans. Among our clients are international corporations, local buyers and sellers of real property, landlords and tenants, investment-and property-management companies, as well as lending institutions

Our commercial real estate practice includes these areas:

• Acquisitions
• Brokerage commission disputes
• Cleanup reimbursements
• Construction-contract issues and litigation
• Contract negotiations
• Debt restructurings
• Environmental remediation
• Foreclosures
• Landlord-tenant disputes
• Lease negotiations and contracts
• Lender representation
• Loan workouts
• Project finance, including mortgages, sale-leasebacks, like-kind exchange, and non-traditional financing sources
• Property-management issues
• Title-insurance matters
• Zoning issues

Commercial real estate matters often call for knowledge and expertise in specialized and related areas of law. As a multi-disciplinary firm, we have the professional staff and resources to address a broad scope of issues.
