We accompany you from the purchase of the property, through the project planning, development and exploitation of the project. With our firm, you have a partner at your side who thinks through the legal aspects of a project in every respect. Be it questions of tax law in the acquisition and sale of a property, questions of public law in the dedication and building permit or questions of neighbor law in the building permit procedure.

KWR acts as trustee and contracting agent on numerous real estate projects and is a respected partner in the execution of complex transactions (whether by way of an asset or share deal) both domestically and internationally. 

Through close cross-​team cooperation with other practice groups (for example in the areas of public procurement law, public law or corporate law), we are able to offer our clients comprehensive advice in all areas of law.

At KWR, you will only be served by proven specialists and you can count on us to provide you with quality at the highest level.
