Commercial Real Estate Lawyers

Commercial Real Estate

Our commercial real estate division represents individual, corporate and foreign investors in the purchase, sale, financing lease or joint venturing of commercial properties. We are the preferred commercial real estate lawyers throughout the five boroughs of Manhattan and New Jersey.

Eric Davis, the chairman of the Commercial real estate department, has vast experience representing clients involved in both simple and highly complex transactions and has achieved remarkable results. He knows how to solve problems and get deals done in the face of tremendous odds—a quality that differentiates ace commercial real estate lawyers from the average ones. One area of his specialty involves the “legal renovation” of distressed real estate, in which he assists clients in obtaining properties with a variety of legal problems such as title, condemnation, tenant, use limitations and environmental issues. His representation includes the legal renovation of those properties typically followed by a sale with tremendous upside value to the client purchaser and/or relief to the afflicted seller.

The commercial real estate services offered by Davis & Davis, LLP are comprehensive. We are ready to assist in the purchase, sale, financing, leasing or join venturing of a particular deal or location. Davis & Davis, LLP also offers highly specialized services. We are experienced practitioners of a strategy known as "real estate special situation arbitrage" or "legal renovation." This strategy provides investors with the opportunity to take advantage of legally distressed properties, purchasing them significantly below market value, effecting legal renovation, and then selling them at or above market value. Examples of legal distress include title defects, condemnation issues, tenant issues, environmental issues, use limitations or implications and other legal matters impacting the marketability of a particular property. Our firm provides assistance in curing the legal defects resulting in substantial added value.  

Our attorneys at Davis & Davis, LLP are also very experienced providing counsel in the context of complex joint venture and development deals, including experience assisting foreign investors in their efforts to purchase real estate in the metropolitan area.
