Our team advises real estate owners and portfolio operators on the management issues they are likely to face over time. The volume of leasing transactions we handle differentiates Mayer Brown from our competitors. Because our leasing lawyers are involved daily in multiple lease negotiations on behalf of both landlords and tenants, we see and hear the arguments for and against virtually all possible lease provisions. As a result, we have the experience to provide workable solutions when facing recalcitrant counterparties in lease negotiations.

Our clients are supported by a dedicated team that tailors its services to clients’ needs—from sharing market developments to helping solve complex problems in this important, income-producing real estate market. We invest time and effort in establishing a constructive, long-term relationship with each client.
