    Introduction

    Adam Weisenberg has more than 40 years of experience in real estate law involving commercial real estate development, investment, and finance across the full range of asset types throughout the United States.

    Practice Areas

    Industries

    Real EstateEnergy

    /My focus

    My work includes zoning, land use, and permitting; joint ventures and partnerships; acquisitions, sales, and exchanges; ground leases; construction, permanent and mezzanine financing; entity structuring and formation transactions; private equity fund formation and transactions; REITs; property management, development management, and asset management agreements; development agreements; REAs and other easements and covenants; and residential and commercial condominiums.

    /Looking ahead

    Working through the bruises of high interest rates and pandemic-induced damage to the office sector will require steady and creative legal guidance as clients seek solutions and opportunities. In the real estate development space, high costs of construction, affordable housing and other exactions, and of course higher interest rates have increased the need for tax deals and other subsidies; governments have started to respond but more will be needed.
