Real Property Law

Our members represent owners, buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, lenders, brokers, developers, builders and other real estate professionals in a wide range of real estate transactions. We help our clients acquire real estate, secure construction and permanent real estate financing, negotiate architect and builder contracts, develop commercial and residential projects and negotiate leases.

Whether it is the negotiation of a complex lease, developing a new project or providing services for a large transaction, our real estate lawyers have the legal and practical experience, as well as an understanding and appreciation of the business issues involved, to get the job done in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Our members have experience negotiating leases and subleases for a wide range of properties on behalf of both landlords and tenants. Waivers of subrogation, tenant improvement allowances, environmental risk allocation, assignment and subletting rights and landlord remedies are just a few of the issues that must be understood and dealt with in the context of negotiating a commercial lease. In addition, our members have a comprehensive understanding and appreciation for the business issues that arise in lease negotiations, including base rent structures and the use of pass-through provisions to accomplish the landlord’s financial objective.

Our members represent lenders, contractors and borrowers in a wide range of real estate and construction issues.
