Real Estate, Lease & Construction
In addition to real estate transactions we often deal with real estate-related issues within the framework of ongoing advice to our clients. For example, we provide assistance in negotiating and drafting of commercial tenancy contracts. We also provide advice regarding leases, easements and rights of use. We are frequently engaged in property law disputes and in tenancy disputes before the rent and tenancy board or general court.
Experience
Skarp has broad experience of legal issues connected to real estate. Our lawyers are particularly experienced in dealing with issues related to property transfers, rental and tenant rights, as well as construction law and procurement. We have experience in many types of property transactions, such as property transfers, property packages, transfers of property companies and transfers that take place through property regulation, both as representatives of sellers and buyers. In addition to this, we also offer qualified legal advice in land and environmental law.
