Retail

Our firm provides advisory services to clients ranging from local family-owned businesses to national companies.

This representation involves regional and national retailers, restaurants, grocery stores, shopping center owners and operators, hospital systems, entertainment providers and real estate developers and investors.

We represent buyers and sellers, landlords and tenants, franchisors and franchisees and lenders, borrowers and investors, regularly advising these clients on all aspects of retail acquisition, development, financing and operational matters, including site selection, permitting, zoning, tax incentives, environmental matters, title and survey issues, construction, risk assessment and dispute resolution.  We work with our clients to draft, negotiate and review purchase and sale agreements, all types of commercial leases (including ground leases, build-to-suit leases, and freestanding and shopping center leases), loan agreements, development agreements and various types of easements, covenants and restrictions.
