Our real estate practice has been a signature of our firm since its founding and we continue to provide superior real estate counsel to our domestic and international clients.
Because of the diversity of our clients and the varied nature of their real estate needs, each of our firm's attorneys have acquired and developed expertise in a broad range of matters. We are involved in virtually every type of real estate transaction. This exposure affords our attorneys the opportunity to serve as counsel on different sides of many types of transactions. We are equally proficient at representing the seller or the buyer in a real property transaction, the landlord or the tenant in a lease negotiation, and the lender or the borrower in a loan transaction. We are effective as advocates for either side because we know from first-hand experience the issues likely to be considered by opposing counsel.

- Sales and acquisitions of residential, commercial, mixed use and industrial properties, including 1031 tax-deferred exchanges and auction acquisitions.
