Baker Donelson’s Real Estate Group advises clients on a wide spectrum of real estate transactions, including developments, financings, single asset and portfolio sales and acquisitions, leasing, like-kind exchanges and title insurance.

No firm in the Southeast matches the “boots on the ground” experience and depth of resources offered by Baker Donelson’s Real Estate Group. With more than 80 real estate lawyers in 17 offices stretching from Houston to Washington, D.C. to Orlando, we are uniquely positioned to handle multi-state real estate and financing transactions for clients on a regional and national scale. We bring to large, complex transactions the speed, efficiency and responsiveness which only deep familiarity and experience that local real estate markets make possible.

As our clients’ transactions require, our real estate team has ready access within the Firm to comprehensive ancillary support and services often required by complex matters, including corporate and partnership tax law, federal, state and local tax, federal regulatory, environmental and state regulatory, corporate and securities, and land use and zoning.

For 130 years, Baker Donelson has built a reputation for achieving results for our clients, both nationally and internationally, on a wide range of legal matters.
