Commercial Real Estate Attorney
Legal Counsel That Understands the Deal
From LOI to closing with clear, business-minded guidance
Commercial property moves on tight timelines with high stakes—negotiated LOIs, detailed purchase agreements, and multi-party closings. Scott Brower Law Offices helps owners, investors, landlords, and tenants structure terms that support real goals: predictable costs, clean diligence, and enforceable obligations. We coordinate environmental reports, surveys, title endorsements, lender requirements, and assignment of leases, keeping deadlines front and center as part of comprehensive
real estate law.
Purchases and Sales
Negotiation, diligence, financing coordination, and execution
We draft or negotiate contracts covering due-diligence periods, representations and warranties, financing and zoning contingencies, and cure rights. Diligence includes title/survey review, ALTA requirements, environmental Phase I coordination, and zoning/uses verification so you don’t inherit hidden problems. For financed deals, we align loan documents, guaranties, and collateral descriptions. At closing, we manage deeds, assignments, estoppels, and bill-of-sale items, verifying closing statements down to the last prorated tax.
Commercial Leasing
Landlord and tenant representation with practical leverage
Landlords get clear, enforceable leases—defined CAM calculations, maintenance and repair responsibilities, insurance requirements, default remedies, and options structured to match investment goals. Tenants receive focused negotiation on personal guarantees, assignment and sublease rights, build-out language, exclusivity, relocation clauses, and renewal pricing mechanics. The outcome is a lease that reads the way you expect the space to operate.
Development and Zoning Support
Site use, entitlements, and the path to shovel-ready
When a project needs entitlements or a use check, we coordinate with local officials and your consultants, align timelines with contingency deadlines, and document extensions when discovery warrants more time. Easements, access rights, and utility agreements are addressed early to avoid construction delays.
Cross-Over With Other Needs
Linking property moves with longer-term planning
New property acquisitions and major leases are a good time to review estate planning for owners and to ensure title and operating agreements match succession plans. Residential investors can also benefit from our residential real estate services for single-family or small multifamily assets.
Questions businesses ask
What Your Team Wants to Know Before Signing
What does a commercial real estate attorney do?
We convert business terms into precise documents, manage diligence, and protect leverage when issues surface.
Do I need entity changes for a purchase?
Often yes—LLCs or series structures can simplify liability and future sales. We’ll coordinate with your tax advisor.
Can a tenant avoid a full personal guarantee?
Sometimes—through limited or “good-guy” style guarantees, higher deposit alternatives, or phased burn-offs.
