Joint venture work comprises one of our core real estate practice areas. We have significant experience representing both institutional investors and sponsors in a wide range of project types. Our services span the life cycle of a joint venture, and are heavily focused on the formation of the company, fund, partnership or other applicable investment vehicle. Much of our joint venture work relates to projects involving ground-up development. We also have substantial experience in the establishment of programmatic joint venture platforms. Our JV work also includes the establishment of co-investment programs on behalf of publicly traded REITs and their operating partnerships.
