Real Estate and Retail.

Real estate is a legally complex ecosystem where every transaction requires multidisciplinary expertise. We advise developers, institutional investors, funds and retail operators across the full asset life cycle: due diligence, development contracts, investment vehicles, commercial leases, sale & leaseback and portfolio enhancement.

The real estate market is a legally complex ecosystem in which every transaction demands multidisciplinary expertise and an integrated vision. Our firm advises developers, institutional investors, family offices, real estate funds and retail operators at every stage of an asset's life cycle: from acquisition and legal and planning due diligence, to negotiating contracts with builders, designers and suppliers, from structuring investment vehicles (SPVs, SICAFs, closed-end funds) to enhancing and disposing of assets. We operate with full command of the relevant contractual, planning, tax and governance tools.

In retail real estate, we advise shopping centres, high street retailers and large-scale distribution operators on negotiating complex commercial leases, business rental agreements, sale & leaseback transactions and portfolio management in situations of tenant distress or debt restructuring. We closely follow the structural changes that the digitalisation of consumption, e-commerce and new omnichannel retail models are bringing to the commercial property market, offering clients advice capable of anticipating market shifts before they turn into disputes or loss of value.
