Real Estate & Construction

Practical advice in real estate & construction

We advise investors, developers, landowners, landlords, tenants and construction companies on commercial real estate and construction matters. Our team has experience in major transactions involving retail centres, office buildings, logistics facilities and industrial properties across the Baltic region. We assist throughout the project lifecycle, from acquisition and development to leasing, construction, permitting and dispute resolution.

Transactions, contracts and project implementation

Real estate transactions and construction projects require careful attention to structure. Even a commercially sound project may face delays, additional costs or disputes if ownership, permits, planning conditions, lease terms or construction responsibilities are not clearly addressed.

We advise clients throughout real estate transactions and construction projects, from acquisitions, development and leasing to construction contracts, planning matters and dealings with public authorities. Where problems arise, we advise on claims and represent clients in real estate, lease and construction disputes.
