The practice of commercial real estate law involves many layers, such as addressing environmental concerns, title issues, tenancy matters, corporate ownership issues and financing. It is frequently far more complex than a simple residential real estate transaction. It is a true team effort, involving real estate brokers, environmental consultants, title insurers, contractors and lenders.
