The firm stands out for its strong track record of assisting with the structuring and development of large-scale residential, commercial and industrial projects, but also has robust skill sets in the negotiation of build-to-suit leases, the purchase and sale of properties, and the constitution of co-ownership regimes. ’Shining star‘ Eva Cacacho leads the team, with a broad practice that takes in project development and the incorporation of real estate funds.
