Comprehensive legal counsel to effectively manage complex real estate litigation and disputes.
Real estate disputes present a unique set of challenges. When litigation arises out of a real estate transaction, clients need attorneys who are skilled litigators with a sophisticated understanding of complex financings, ownership structures and local state rules that apply to secured transactions. Our experienced team of litigators has the skill and knowledge required to help clients resolve difficult real estate disputes.
We work closely with our real estate lawyers to develop innovative litigation strategies and with our firm’s other practice groups to devise creative solutions for our clients on land use and zoning, environmental, taxation, bankruptcy and other matters. Working across our firm helps us bring value to our clients through cost-effective services and eliminating the need for additional local counsel.
