Our lawyers have practiced extensively in the multifamily, retail and office sectors. Our expertise includes:
- Purchase and sale transactions
- Commercial loan transactions
- Commercial leasing
- Formation of Partnerships and joint ventures
- Tax-deferred exchanges (forward and reverse) under IRC §1031, including related negotiation and structuring of TIC interests
