CONSTRUCTION AND REAL ESTATE

Construction & Real Estate

The construction and real estate industry is characterized by large financial interests, technical complexity and all within very strict regulations.

Our attorneys in the Department of Construction and Real Estate combine in-depth legal knowledge with years of practical experience, allowing us to get to the bottom of complex cases quickly.

We offer our clients not only legal certainty, but also strategic added value. Thanks to our closeness to the sector and our multidisciplinary approach, we deliver solutions that are legally watertight but also practicable and future-proof.

Our expertise

Real estate transactions – We assist in the negotiation and drafting of purchase and sale agreements (asset and share deals) and provide specialized guidance on the establishment of rights in rem (easements, leasehold, superficies, usufruct). We conduct thorough due diligence investigations in which legal, contractual and commercial aspects are carefully analyzed. Thus we offer our clients certainty, insight into risks and a solid basis for strategic decisions.

Project development – Structuring projects, drafting and negotiating cooperation agreements and providing tailored guidance during the implementation phase. We guard legal consistency, risk management and efficient project progress.

Contracting and construction law – Negotiation and drafting of careful but commercially workable contracting agreements and decisive assistance when things go wrong. We are familiar with site practice as well as court logic.

Rent – We assist both professional and private tenants and landlords in the negotiation and drafting of leases. Naturally, we also provide efficient assistance in rental disputes.

Co-ownership – Legal support for syndics, VMEs and co-owners. We provide clear, practically applicable solutions and guarantee an efficient approach that ensures continuity and stability within co-ownership.

Real estate mediation – We provide legal assistance to real estate brokers under the mediation agreement as well as in liability cases, and with a clear focus on compliance and professional diligence.
