Real estate investment and development is often influenced by a wide range of economic, social and regulatory factors. Technology, access to capital, shifting demographics – all play important roles and their impact can vary widely across geographic markets. In this dynamic environment, mistakes can be costly, and you need legal advisors who understand the industry from end-to-end.
At Lewis Roca, our real estate attorneys handle transactions including every type of asset from multifamily residential properties to airport concessions to casinos and resorts. We work with our clients, the development community and local jurisdictions to address all aspects of development and the sometimes unpredictable zoning, permitting and infrastructure needs associated with traditional development, infill development and the adaptive re-use of buildings.
