Experienced Real Property Lawyers Serving Clients Statewide In Ohio

Our clients include real estate investment trusts, commercial brokers, property management companies, developers, owners of developed or unimproved property, construction companies, commercial lessors and mortgage lenders.

We also work with banks and other lenders in possession of commercial properties.
