Leasing

 
 

Leasing is a major component of our transactional real estate practice. We represent landlords, tenants, subtenants, developers, and investors in all types of commercial leasing transactions. These transactions include office, retail, industrial, medical, utility, warehouse, and ground leases. Our leasing practice extends throughout the United States, and encompasses both traditional leasing and specialized leasing, including build-to-suit, leveraged, and mixed-use leases.

In our leasing practice we draw on our expertise in related legal and business areas, including tax, environmental, indemnification, financing, litigation, construction, bank restructuring, zoning and eminent domain.
