Buckingham, Doolittle & Burroughs, LLP regularly represents clients in all types of real estate matters, including the sale, leasing, acquisition, financing, development, construction and zoning of residential, commercial and industrial property. Many real estate matters relate to additional disciplines, and we have expertise in estate planning, tax, construction, insurance, litigation and environmental law. Our lawyers are experienced in eminent domain proceedings as well as land use and environmental counseling. Our construction services are aimed at developing practical, economical decisions in an increasingly complex business. Bidding disputes, contract negotiations, risk allocation, safety practices, mechanics' liens and payment practices are only a few of the matters which can transform a profitable, successful undertaking into a seemingly bottomless drain on the financial and emotional resources of a project's participants.

Our expertise comes from having represented owners, developers, bankers, architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers in every facet of the industry. It comes from recognizing the trends of the industry and helping our clients take advantage of those trends. It comes from teaching others about the intricacies of construction and real estate related matters. Beyond all else, our expertise comes from listening to, working with and solving problems of our clients.

Today the real estate and construction industries face continual changes in technology, methodology, financing, competition and law. Whether the project is large or small and whether you are a buyer or seller of property or services, the attorneys at Buckingham, Doolittle & Burroughs, LLP can provide you with the practical advice you need when addressing real estate and construction issues.
