When should I seek legal advice for commercial real estate matters

It is generally advisable to seek legal advice early, and preferably before or during negotiations, to reduce the risk of delays, complications, or issues and to ensure that transaction terms reflect the parties’ intentions and business arrangements. In some cases, clients proceed with negotiations before seeking advice, which may result in terms being agreed in principle that later require revision and can affect the efficiency or momentum of the transaction. Early involvement can also assist in balancing the interests of the parties, including lenders, and addressing closing mechanics as part of the transaction.
