Distressed Real Estate
Real estate lenders and borrowers need clear, steady guidance when facing non-performing loans and distressed assets. Our team helps clients navigate these moments with confidence.
We bring together specialists across restructuring, workouts, disputes, acquisitions and refinancing. With experience across all asset classes and jurisdictions, we offer both big-picture perspective and attention to local detail.
Clients rely on our support in evaluating their assets, establishing a workout strategy, developing the workout's legal structure and negotiating and consummating the workout.
Our attorneys regularly structure complex workouts of every variety, including:
- traditional debt restructurings
- collateral recovery
- liquidations
- prepackaged bankruptcy plans
Clients trust us to resolve, promptly and cost-effectively, novel and difficult legal issues in restructurings, out-of-court loan workouts, Chapter 11 reorganizations, distressed sales, litigation matters and other insolvency proceedings.
We regularly draw upon the experience of other attorneys in our firm, including those focusing on antitrust, employee benefits, insurance, mergers and acquisitions, securities, tax and various litigation disciplines.
From single asset transactions to portfolio deals, from ground-up development projects to long-term ground leases, and from joint ventures to company acquisitions, our real estate private equity lawyers have advised on many billions of dollars’ worth of transactions.
We represent investors, real estate funds, real estate developers, public and private REITs, and pension fund advisors on the structuring of real estate fund formation, acquisitions and dispositions, financings and joint ventures.
Borrowers and bank and non-bank lenders work with us in connection with:
- the origination, acquisition and sale of mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, securitized loans, bridge financings, construction loans and preferred equity investments;
- intercreditor, participation and AB co-lender agreements;
