Backed by the resources of 140+ attorneys nationally, we provide seamless, full-service guidance throughout every phase of a project.

We distinguish ourselves as market leaders in multifamily development, regularly guiding the largest developers, owners, operators and institutional investors through complex transactions and financings totaling billions of dollars. Our team possesses unmatched experience in borrower-side financing, drawing from our extensive negotiation history with a broad array of lenders to secure optimal deal terms and mitigate risk.

We are at the forefront of the build-to-rent sector, counseling clients through the unique challenges of these transactions from land acquisition to the disposition of completed projects. Our net lease practice spans both large-scale portfolios and single-asset transactions, innovating with structures such as hybrid lease/mortgage deals and joint ventures.
