Common questions

I am buying a commercial property. When should I involve a lawyer?

Early involvement can help identify issues in the purchase agreement, title, financing conditions, ownership structure, leases and closing requirements before they become difficult to change.

I am developing land. Can Andre coordinate the transaction structure with financing and ownership?

Yes. These matters often require coordination among purchase terms, ownership entities, investors, lenders, title issues and development arrangements.
