Real Estate

Real estate development is a major engine of the Canadian and international economy, and those in the field know how much value is added by a lawyer with real experience in the process. Shibley Righton LLP has been handling major real estate developments and transactions, and related dispute resolution, corporate, and tax issues, for almost fifty years. We've been at this during the boom times, and the hard times, and we've learned a thing or two along the way.

The professionals who make up our real estate team have experience in matters involving:

land assemblies, condominiums, commercial and industrial projects, limited partnerships, joint ventures, and a broad range of other development activities and structures
restructuring development projects and protecting the rights of mortgage holders and other creditors in a project context
purchases and sales, corporate acquisitions, commercial leasing, zoning and municipal matters, mortgage financing and remedies, and other transactions for residential and commercial property owners and franchise businesses to not-for-profits and public and private schools.
