Real estate development projects
Real estate development projects can be extraordinarily complex and may include many different parties, including consultants, lenders, contractors, potential purchasers, potential tenants, and more. In order for your project to be successful, you must comply with a great number of laws and regulations, some of which you may not even be aware. When you have an experienced attorney guiding you through the process, you can rest assured that all applicable legal issues of your project will be addressed.
Some of the issues with which our attorneys can assist you include:
- Land acquisition/purchasing
- Financing for the real estate purchase and for construction
- Negotiation of contracts with sellers, contractors, and other parties
- Obtaining permits1 from local, state, and federal agencies
- Environmental compliance2
- Leasing
Every project is different and will therefore have its own unique legal needs, and our lawyers are prepared to evaluate your situation and help you see your project through to completion.
Buying and selling real estate
Even if you are not planning a development project literally from the ground up, projects that involve buying and selling properties can have numerous legal issues, as well. For example, we handle contract review, title insurance disputes, disputes with banking institutions, lien claims, disputes with local governments, and much more.
