We recognize the need for creativity in structuring real estate related transactions to meet the needs of all participants. Our goals throughout such transactions are to provide the best possible legal advice, responsive service and clear and concise documentation in a timely manner.

Residential Sales and Purchases

Increasingly, people are choosing to sell their properties on their own without the help of a real estate agency. While this approach can save thousands of dollars in commission, it also can expose the parties to liabilities and headaches of which they were unaware. If you decide to sell a property on your own, you should consult an attorney before you consider accepting or tendering an offer.

Realtors specialize in helping you buy or sell a property. They are not qualified to give legal advice nor are they permitted by law to offer legal advice. A real estate agent is just one member of the team. You should consult with a real estate attorney concerning the legl issues which relate to your transactions even if you are represented by a competent broker/realtor.

Whether you are purchasing your first home, upgrading to a larger home, or selling your “empty nest”, buying a home should be an exciting and rewarding experience. For those seeking residential real estate advice, we can help you take the mystery out of buying or selling real estate in California, and make certain that you have enough information to make informed decisions about your transaction.

Commercial

We specialize in purchasing or leasing transactions and will negotiate fair and favorable terms to close your purchase or commence your lease. We devise and interpret commercial leases, and advise clients seeking to acquire or vacate such properties. Our real estate litigation experience allows us to draft and negotiate clauses important to both landlords and tenants as to how they might be interpreted in a legal dispute. We are sensitive to the implications of particular wording in all real estate contracts and can provide valuable guidance regarding clauses that seem to convey the general idea but, in reality, can have unintended consequences.

We have represented developers, investors, and owners in connection with the acquisition and disposition of commercial properties. We offer representation in commercial real estate workouts and the enforcement of rights and remedies in foreclosure, eviction, and other real estate related litigation. We adopt a business approach to problem solving and strive to find practical and cost effective solutions for all your commercial real estate needs.

Leases

We have extensive experience representing owners/landlords and tenants in leasing transactions involving space leases (retail, office, and other commercial space), ground leases, net leases, sale/leasebacks, master leases, build-to-suit leases, lease amendments, subleases, lease takeovers, lease surrenders, occupancy agreements, subordination and non-disturbance agreements, and lease reviews for acquisition and financing transactions.
