Real Estate

Real estate transactions invoke a wide array of legal issues, some of which surface well after a real estate deal is complete.  It is an extremely broad area of the law and includes matters such as purchases and sales, financing, foreclosures, land use, zoning, environmental regulation and residential and commercial leasing.

At Meissner Tierney our attorneys are leaders in the real estate industry, representing local, regional and national real estate concerns in matters ranging from residential purchase and sales to the development of 30-plus story hotel, condominium and apartment complexes.  We represent developers, banks, corporate and individual real estate investors, owners and operators in a broad range of real estate transactions and litigation throughout the country.  In addition, our extensive expertise in various other areas of the law provides us with a unique perspective on the opportunities and challenges that our clients regularly encounter.
