Sep 25, 2026
Ready to move your real estate project from opportunity to reality?
Real estate projects rarely involve just one legal issue. A development, acquisition, financing or ongoing portfolio matter can call for coordinated advice across multiple areas of practice. Our Real Estate team partners with our construction, environmental, tax, corporate, government relations and litigation lawyers to provide clients with a cohesive approach to every project or transaction no matter what issues might arise. Our full-service approach provides practical guidance from early planning and due diligence through development, operation, disposition and when necessary, dispute resolution.
One team to handle every real estate move
Our real estate lawyers serve as the center of a team built around each client and matter. We draw on related practices when their experience helps clear a path, reduce risk or keeps a transaction on schedule. Depending on the specific project, that work may include:
- Acquisitions, dispositions, joint ventures, financing, leasing, title review and due diligence
- Development planning, zoning, land use, easements, entitlements and governmental approvals
- Environmental due diligence, permitting, compliance and site-related concerns
- Construction contracts, project delivery, payment matters, claims and risk management
- Corporate structuring, state and local incentives, tax planning and tax credit transactions
- Real estate litigation, construction disputes and other conflicts involving property or project rights
Powering the projects and deals transforming real estate
Determining whether a project can move forward starts well before construction. Our multifaceted team helps clients evaluate and address issues from the start, coordinating the legal pieces necessary to position the project for development. This includes working with our environmental, corporate and government relations lawyers on permitting, regulatory requirements and state or local incentive programs. Once a project moves into development, we also work closely with our Construction team from the design stage through construction and completion.
From one transaction to the next, we keep your portfolio moving
For companies that buy, sell, lease or finance properties regularly, the level of support needed may extend well beyond a single closing. We can provide ongoing counsel for clients engaging in multiple transactions and the broader corporate, tax, environmental, construction and litigation-related issues that come with owning or using real estate as part of a business. Whether a client completes a series of smaller transactions or pursues a major development, we scale the team to meet the needs and keep the work focused on efficiency, consistency and business value.
When the stakes rise, we’re ready for trial
Our real estate transactions and projects are structured with dispute and risk prevention top of mind, but conflicts may still arise. When disputes occur, our skilled Litigation team steps in, representing client on issues such as contract disputes, title and boundary issues, land use challenges, construction claims, landlord-tenant matters and other controversies tied to real property, pursuing practical resolution while remaining prepared to litigate when needed.
