Real Estate Law

Sutin, Thayer & Browne real estate lawyers represent local, regional and national clients in a broad range of real estate matters. These matters include structuring, negotiating, and implementing a wide range of development, construction, sales, purchases, leasing, borrowing, and joint venture transactions on behalf of developers, contractors, owners, lessees, institutional lenders, and private capital sources, including REITs and government funds. We also handle real estate litigation.

We counsel design professionals, contractors, material suppliers, and owners on a wide range of development and construction issues, including design professional liability, construction contract claims, general liability issues, and bonding requirements. Our lawyers provide advice throughout the construction process—from the preparation of bid documents to the negotiation and drafting of design, construction, and professional service contracts, to response planning for project delays and change orders, to dispute resolution and, if necessary, litigation involving breach of contract, architect malpractice, construction defect claims, mechanics’ and material men’s liens and related matters.
