Real Estate and Construction
Our Real Estate & Construction team advises clients across the full spectrum of property development, ownership, and investment. We work with developers, property owners, investors, lenders, and public entities to structure, negotiate, and execute transactions with clarity and precision—no matter the complexity or scale.
With deep experience in both commercial and residential real estate, we assist clients in navigating acquisitions, dispositions, and leasing matters, including the structuring of financing arrangements and addressing title and land use considerations. We are regularly called upon to resolve zoning and permitting issues, guide clients through government approvals, and manage environmental concerns that can impact project timelines and long-term viability.
In the construction space, our team handles disputes arising from design and build contracts, delay claims, lien issues, and project performance matters. We advocate for clients in litigation and arbitration, and when necessary, work toward resolution through negotiation and strategic risk management.
We also represent clients in matters involving public takings, contested valuations, and appeals before local boards of revision. Our attorney team is experienced in navigating state and federal frameworks governing eminent domain and real estate taxation, ensuring our clients’ interests are protected when facing regulatory challenges.
From initial planning and financing through development, disposition, or dispute resolution, we deliver strategic legal counsel grounded in a thorough understanding of the real estate and construction industries.
