Real Estate Litigation

Real estate disputes rarely fit into a single doctrinal box. They combine partnership law, fiduciary duty, financing, title, and — sometimes — the future viability of a specific asset. Chris litigates real estate matters with a strategy tailored to the underlying property and the client's long-term position.

Matters handled

Partnership and joint-venture disputes among developers, investors, and operating partners.

Commercial lease disputes, purchase-and-sale disagreements, and property-line and easement matters.

Distressed real estate matters where litigation strategy and financing strategy must align to preserve the asset.

Who this is for

Developers, investors, landlords, and property owners facing partnership disputes, breach-of-fiduciary claims, or financing-related litigation on significant assets.
