Our real estate lawyers provide clients in Pennsylvania and elsewhere with in-depth knowledge and experience in transactions involving the acquisition, development, leasing, management and disposition of commercial, industrial, and residential real estate, including the financing aspects of those transactions.

        CGA is experienced in representing contractors, architects, and engineers in the preparation and negotiation of construction contracts, construction management agreements, brokerage agreements, and other agreements relating to these professional services.

       The assistance we provide begins with counseling and advice on how to design and to structure a project or transaction to best serve the client's business objectives by, for example, minimizing zoning or other land-use, environmental or regulatory problems; analyzing financing alternatives; maximizing the potential for favorable financing and achieving favorable tax treatment and performing related tax planning. Our assistance continues throughout the entire transaction, encompassing everything from negotiations to preparation of all necessary agreements and documents.

       Our real estate lawyers work in conjunction with our litigators in real property tax appeals and other adversarial matters involving real estate. They also draw, as needed, on the expertise of other specialists in the firm.
