Full-service counsel for complex
commercial real estate transactions.
Valence advises on the full range of commercial real estate transactions. Every attorney at the firm works exclusively on commercial real estate, bringing focused experience, consistent judgment, and a practical understanding of how these deals are structured, negotiated, and executed across four core practice areas.
Commercial Leasing & Subleasing
The center of our practice. We represent landlords and tenants in sophisticated leasing transactions across the full spectrum of asset classes, from single-location leases to complex headquarters transactions, multi-floor expansions, portfolio rollouts, and high-value subleases. Our leasing work spans California and major markets throughout the United States, giving us market perspective shaped by daily work on commercial real estate transactions rather than occasional exposure as part of a broader generalist practice.
We focus on the provisions that shape the business deal over time: rent structure, operating expense exposure, assignment and expansion rights, work letter and delivery issues, default risk, and the allocation of responsibility when business needs change.
Acquisitions & Dispositions
We represent buyers, sellers, and corporate end users in acquisitions and dispositions ranging from single-asset transactions to portfolio sales and more complex multi-party deals. Our work covers the full transaction lifecycle, including letters of intent, purchase and sale agreements, diligence review, title and survey analysis, financing coordination, and closing.
Construction and Other Real Estate Contracts
We draft, review, and negotiate the agreements that support the development, construction, operation, and ongoing management of commercial real estate assets. Our work spans the full lifecycle of a project, from early-stage development and design through construction and day-to-day asset operations.
Commercial Lending
We represent lenders and borrowers in commercial real estate finance transactions, including acquisition financing, construction loans, bridge facilities, permanent loans, restructurings, and loan modifications. We bring practical deal experience to loan structuring and documentation, with close attention to how financing terms interact with the underlying asset, project, and business plan.
