Snow LLP is a commercial real estate practice. The work is transaction-oriented — structured around the legal work required to acquire, finance, develop, lease, and dispose of commercial real estate, and to organize the entities and capital structures that support those transactions.

The practice does not maintain a broad general corporate or litigation practice. Every capability described here reflects work that is central to commercial real estate transactions.

Representation Across the Transaction Lifecycle

Commercial real estate transactions require coordinated legal work across multiple stages. Snow LLP advises clients from initial structure and site control through diligence, financing, documentation, regulatory approvals, and closing. For ownership and development situations, the engagement often continues through leasing, refinancing, recapitalization, and eventual disposition.

The practice handles both sides of transactions — buyer and seller, landlord and tenant, borrower and lender — and works in single-asset, portfolio, and programmatic transaction contexts.

Related Transaction Considerations

Commercial real estate transactions regularly involve entity formation, joint-venture structuring, 1031 exchange coordination, title and survey resolution, intercreditor arrangements, regulatory compliance, and post-closing administration. Snow LLP handles these as integrated parts of the transaction rather than as separate matters.
