Our Commercial Real Estate Services

Acquisitions & Sales

We review letters of intent, purchase agreements, title issues, due diligence findings, and closing documents for commercial property transactions.

Development & Entitlements

Real estate development counsel helps align site control, entitlements, municipal approvals, easements, and project contracts before work begins.

Commercial Leasing

A commercial lease lawyer in Nashville can address rent structures, operating costs, renewal rights, build-outs, assignments, and exit terms.

Financing & Loan Documents

We review promissory notes, deeds of trust, guarantees, construction loans, refinancing terms, and intercreditor arrangements.

Construction Contracts

Owners, contractors, and developers receive careful review of construction agreements, subcontracts, payment terms, change orders, and delay provisions.

Zoning & Land Use

We help clients address zoning classifications, variances, site plans, permitting, easements, and land-use questions before they become costly obstacles.

Development counsel

Real Estate Development: Navigating Zoning and Permitting

Nashville projects need a clear approval plan. We work with architects, engineers, surveyors, contractors, and municipal officials to identify legal issues early.

Good planning saves time.

Due diligence and site review

We examine title, surveys, easements, existing restrictions, environmental concerns, and the proposed use of the property.

Entitlements and zoning strategy

We map the approvals needed for the site, including zoning requests, variances, special exceptions, and development conditions.

Permits and municipal coordination

Our team helps keep applications, plan comments, hearings, and agency communications aligned with the project schedule.

Construction documents and closing

We connect approved plans to construction contracts, financing documents, easements, and the final transaction structure.

Lease strategy

Commercial Lease Negotiation and Documentation

Lease language controls how a property earns money and who carries risk. We represent landlords and tenants in office, retail, industrial, and mixed-use spaces.

  • Rent schedules, CAM charges, operating expenses, and audit rights.
  • Renewal options, termination rights, assignment, and subletting.
  • Tenant improvements, build-out allowances, maintenance, and insurance.
  • Default remedies, indemnity language, and hidden liability.
One clause can change the deal. We explain the practical effect of proposed language before you sign, so the lease reflects how the property will actually operate.

Construction Contracts and Dispute Avoidance

A construction contract lawyer can address payment schedules, scope changes, lien rights, insurance, warranties, delay claims, and responsibility for defective work before conflict grows.
