Lori's practice focuses on all facets of commercial real estate transactions, including the representation of clients in the acquisition and disposition of office, multifamily, multi-use, retail, and industrial properties, and all financing in connection therewith. Her experience includes the representation of hospitality clients in connection with bond-financed hotel and convention center projects. She also has experience in negotiating (for both tenants and landlords) leases for office buildings, options to buy, retail space and industrial space, as well as easements, licenses, and all other real property-related matters. Lori regularly represents lenders in connection with origination as well as workouts, forbearance, modifications, and exercise of remedies (including foreclosure), and generally advises clients on issues relative to the servicing of commercial mortgage-backed securitized loans and compliance with related pooling and servicing agreements. Lori regularly counsels clients in the drafting and negotiating of complex multi-tiered project and investor-level limited partnership agreements and assists with the exercise of rights and remedies thereunder, including exit strategies, withdrawal negotiations and removals. Many of such projects are multi-family low-income housing developments with tax credits.
