What We Do

---

We provide our clients with the individual attention and legal counseling that only experienced and seasoned lawyers can provide. Because our practice is limited in scope we bring our experience to bear in structuring and documenting transactions in a manner that is the most efficient for our clients.  We do not hold ourselves out as being experts in every aspect of transactional law.  However, in the areas in which we specialize, our lawyers will provide the representation needed for the most sophisticated transaction.

Real Estate Finance

• Lender Representation
  
• Borrower Representation
• Hard Money Lending
• Foreclosures
• Work Outs

We represent both lenders and borrowers, so we are well aware of the nuances and pitfalls for each side.  We are experienced in a wide range of financing transactions including hard money lending, construction financing and mezzanine financing. We are very focused on the unique aspects of secured lending in Colorado. Whether involved with individual loans or dealing with issues related to secured property that is in distress, we will address the broad spectrum of financing issues.

Marijuana Tenanted Real Estate

We represent real estate investors with tenants or operators in the legal marijuana business.  We know that these transactions are 'real estate' transactions first and foremost.  There are many lawyers specializing in marijuana regulatory matters who incidentally handle some real estate - that is not us.   We understand the fine points of real estate deals and have extensive experience in dealing with Colorado’s complex marijuana laws and regulations.

With more than 30 years of trial and arbitration experience, we can represent our clients in a wide range of commercial litigation, from contract disputes, evictions, collections, employment issues and other matters. We focus on cost effective resolutions with practical business results, but are prepared and willing to resolve disputes in the courtroom when necessary.
