Real Estate Law

Real estate is often the largest investment a business or investor will make, and the details matter. For more than 25 years, Ed has structured, negotiated and closed the sale, acquisition, development and leasing of commercial properties of all sizes, including office, retail, multi-family, industrial and mixed-use properties and undeveloped land.

Whether you are acquiring an investment property, developing a site, seeking zoning approval, negotiating a lease for your new location, restructuring a deal in progress or financing a project, we work to protect your interests, identify problems early and keep the transaction moving toward closing.

Who we work with:

property owners, developers, real estate investors, landlords, commercial tenants, community banks and other lenders, and real estate brokers.
