Property disputes are balance-sheet events long before they're legal ones.
Real estate disputes — from contested developments to distressed portfolios — carry financing and valuation consequences that shape the strategy from day one.
A property dispute is rarely just about the property.
Behind most significant real estate disputes sits a financing arrangement, a fund's valuation cycle, or a covenant that a lender is watching closely. Advice that ignores that context tends to win the legal point and lose the client's actual objective.
We advise institutional landlords, developers and funds with the balance sheet consequences in view alongside the legal ones — particularly where a counterparty's financial distress is part of the picture.
