David focuses his practice on helping clients purchase, sell, develop, lease, manage, and finance all types of property including industrial, mixed-use, multifamily, commercial, office, and vacant land sites. His practice extends to environmentally challenged and financially distressed properties and complex construction projects.
With more than 36 years of experience in real estate, David helps real estate developers, investors, property managers, and entrepreneurs as well as wealthy individuals, closely-held companies, and restaurant owners/operators with real estate interests and related matters. He also handles litigation involving real estate contracts, property and construction disputes, landlord-tenant cases, foreclosure, and mechanic’s lien matters.
David’s practice spans well beyond that of a typical real estate attorney. He represents many individuals and closely-held companies with their business formations, day-to-day business issues, and purchases and sales of companies. Previously while serving as general counsel for a manufacturing and real estate holding company, he negotiated contracts with general contractors, subcontractors, and vendors and supervised construction projects in the field. He also negotiated leases directly with tenants and handled day-to-day tenant relationships and property management issues.
