Real Estate Law

The Potomac Legal Group offers a comprehensive set of real estate services. From commercial leasing, transactions and settlements, to development and real estate litigation, our attorneys have the experience to handle your real estate matters.

Commercial Leasing & Disputes

Our commercial leasing attorneys understand the Washington, DC area market, and the specific leasing needs of different businesses and industries. We handle leases for every type of commercial tenant. Whether your company is leasing a building, or your small business, professional group or medical practice is negotiating an office lease, sublease, lease assignment or lease termination, we can assist in representing and protecting your interests.

We also work with developers and real estate management companies to draft leases, management agreements and parking agreements, and negotiate with tenants. We are experienced in assisting with any type of property, from office, retail and restaurant space, to warehouse, storage, industrial space, shopping centers or parking facility.

Our firm can negotiate improvements and build-outs, and we handle disputes relating to construction and repairs by helping to determine who is responsible for paying those costs.

For any commercial lease or property management dispute, our skilled litigation team is available to represent you.

Real Estate Transactions, Contracts & Disputes

Potomac represents purchasers and sellers of real property in transactions. Our real estate practice attorneys will draft, review and negotiate sales contracts that protect your interests. We will advise you on your rights and represent you in any real property purchase.

Our litigation team will handle any dispute between commercial tenants and landlords, developers or property managers, and we will represent you in any litigation involving real estate brokers and agents.

Construction Matters & Mechanic’s Liens

We handle cases involving construction disputes, construction defects, breach of contract or any other matter involving construction issues. We represent property owners, construction firms, architects and designers, contractors and sub-contractors.

Our attorneys will work with owners, tenants and contractors in billing and contract disputes and to place or clear mechanics liens.

Real Estate Development & Partnerships

Our real estate practice group will assist you in any commercial or residential real estate development project. Whether you are developing a small or complex project, you can count on our ability to advise you. We represent owners, developers and investors in providing counsel and legal advice relating to acquisition and assemblage, development and construction, leasing, financing, litigation, partnerships, limited liability companies and joint ventures.

We can advise you on structuring your real estate partnership for investment, ownership and profit distribution. We will assist you in forming a real estate limited liability company (LLC ) to protect your real property purchase.

Boundary Disputes & Adverse Possession

Should neighboring construction, barriers, fences or usage of your property become a dispute between property owners, then you may retain our firm to advise you and demand that the activity ends. We represent clients with simple and complex property line disputes. If you have recently discovered that a neighbor’s building or improvement sits on your property, you should seek representation before the neighbor acquires that portion of your property through adverse possession.
