Noble Law Group lawyers have extensive experience in advising banks on borrower’s structuring of special purpose, bankruptcy-remote entities.

Development of Real Estate Projects. Representing developers and professionals in the commercial development process is a mainstay of the firm’s practice. During the initial phase of a purchase transaction, our real estate lawyers conduct certain due diligence, negotiate letters of intent and acquisition contracts, and assist our clients in conducting due diligence, and review the appropriate loan and closing documents. We then review title, survey, environmental reports and any other agreements affecting the property, and negotiate with opposing counsel to resolve issues resulting from our review. Our attorneys also review the appropriate loan documents, negotiate revisions with the lender or its counsel. Lastly, we review the necessary closing documents and attend the closing. After closing, our attorneys negotiate agreements with contractors and other professionals relating to the contemplated project development and, if necessary, adjacent property owners. Our attorneys will handle disputes arising from the development process and draft reciprocal easement agreements for multi-owner mixed-use buildings and business parks. Among our clients are developers of shopping and outlet centers, business parks, residential communities (multi-family and single-family), office buildings, and mixed-use and high-rise buildings. Our lawyers have been involved with housing and community development/redevelopment programs and our clients in these areas include for-profit and not-for-profit developers, banks and other lenders, and other letter-of-credit providers.
