Whiteford, Taylor & Preston's Real Estate Litigation team has the in-depth industry knowledge and superb courtroom skills to meet the challenges of our clients facing real estate disputes.
Our Real Estate Litigation Team is Experienced and Effective
Working in close association with our various industry groups that focus on real estate, construction, BRAC, green building, and land use/zoning, we have the resources to provide our clients practical, cost-effective and innovative advice and strategies to resolve their case.
The primary focus of our real estate team is to secure the best result for our clients. We understand that in some cases, our clients need more than aggressive advocacy in the courtroom. While a hallmark of our litigators is that we try cases regularly, and do so with great success, we are equally adept at achieving summary disposition before trial, and when practical, skillfully negotiating and facilitating an early, economic resolution of the dispute through adjudication, arbitration or mediation.
