Cooley Godward Kronish’s Real Estate group is global in scope, with particular emphasis on matters within the continental U.S., the Caribbean and Central America. Our close-knit team has a deep understanding of the law, but we are also business people who truly understand our clients’ objectives and the practical realities of the real estate and capital markets. Moreover, we have strong relationships with banks, equity firms, mezzanine lenders and investors, which enable us to help clients secure financing and find transaction opportunities. In short, we take a commercial approach to real estate law.
We assist owners, operators, developers, lenders, tenants and institutional investors and advisors with a wide variety of real property and related capital markets transactions, including:An added dimension that we bring to any real estate transaction is immediate access to expertise in related disciplines within the Firm, which allows us to draw on the experience of our colleagues in other practice groups as needed. This process works especially well at Cooley because our practice groups have a long tradition of working together to meet client needs—however complex—efficiently and completely. For example, our Real Estate group works closely with our Structured Real Estate Investments group on real estate transactions that involve complex joint ventures, preferred equity investments, mezzanine financings, asset collateralizations and securitizations, fund formation, syndications and structured asset acquisitions and dispositions.
