We have an impressive track record disposing of contractual, regulatory compliance, zoning, partnership and defect claims and work at every stage to resolve issues without escalating to the courtroom. That includes negotiating with regulators and local governing bodies to resolve differences and concerns. When litigation cannot be avoided, we conduct a complete and efficient case evaluation and consult with you on the proposed resolution strategy. We work closely with real estate transaction, construction, corporate, environmental and land use attorneys, offering a team with a 360-degree perspective of real estate financing, development construction and operations. We also work in partnership with industry leaders—architects, engineers, accountants, economists, surveyors and real property appraisers—who serve as experts at trial.
