We represent landlords and tenants across the full range of commercial leasing transactions. Our clients include public and private technology companies, institutional landlords, growth-stage businesses, retailers, life sciences companies, investors, and companies managing multi-market real estate portfolios throughout California and major U.S. markets.
Our attorneys trained at leading national firms and bring that experience to a practice focused exclusively on sophisticated commercial real estate transactions. That focus gives our team deep transactional experience and practical insight into the terms that carry the most risk and value.
We focus on the issues that shape the deal: cost exposure, operational flexibility, growth needs, construction and delivery risk, and the allocation of responsibility if business circumstances change. We do not mark up leases for the sake of markups. We work to understand the transaction, identify the issues that matter most, and negotiate toward outcomes that support our clients’ business objectives.
Headquarters, regional office, campus, and build-to-suit transactions for landlords and tenants, including large-scale campus and multi-building transactions.
Warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and logistics facilities, including specialized build-to-suit industrial projects.
Lab, R&D, technology, and mixed-use research facilities, including complex tenant improvement negotiations, utility and infrastructure issues, and hazardous materials provisions.
Retail leasing across inline, multi-tenant, anchor, and pad site formats, including co-tenancy, exclusive use, and percentage rent provisions
Sublease negotiations, assignment transactions, landlord consent agreements, recapture rights, and space dispositions for tenants restructuring or rightsizing their portfolios.
Portfolio management, standardized lease forms, multi-market transaction coordination, and outside real estate counsel engagements for companies operating across multiple markets.
We bring disciplined judgment to each leasing transaction, identifying the issues most likely to affect cost, operations, flexibility, and risk over the life of the lease.
We approach leases as operating documents, not just legal agreements. Our advice is grounded in each client’s business objectives, space needs, timing pressures, and tolerance for risk.
Leasing transactions move quickly. We keep deals on track with clear communication, responsive execution, and focused attention on the issues that matter most.
With experience across California and major U.S. markets, we help clients distinguish between standard asks, unusual positions, and issues worth pushing for.
