Our Approach
Our firm offers comprehensive legal support across the entire real estate lifecycle. We understand that real estate transactions and disputes require not just legal expertise but also in-depth knowledge of commercial realities and regulatory compliances. By combining legal skill with commercial insight, we ensure that our clients’ property interests are protected with the highest degree of diligence. Our focus remains on securing legally compliant and profitable transactions, minimizing risks, and creating long-term value for our clients, whether they are individuals, investors, developers, or corporations.
Property Transactions & Advisory
We provide expert advisory services on all types of real estate transactions, including the sale, purchase, and lease of residential, commercial, and industrial properties. Our team assists in drafting and vetting critical legal documents such as Sale Deeds, Lease Deeds, Development Agreements, and Memoranda of Understanding to prevent disputes and safeguard the client’s interests. We conduct detailed title verification and due diligence to ensure that property titles are clear, marketable, and free of legal encumbrances. Additionally, we structure and document collaborations and joint ventures between developers, landowners, and investors to ensure transparent and beneficial arrangements.
Real Estate Litigation
Disputes in the real estate sector often involve complex legal and factual issues. We represent clients in title disputes, partition suits, succession issues, and inheritance-related claims with strong advocacy and legal clarity. Our firm also handles land acquisition and compensation disputes, ensuring that clients receive fair value for property acquired by government authorities. With specialized knowledge of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA), we represent both homebuyers and developers in regulatory proceedings and compliance disputes. We also handle builder-buyer conflicts, including claims for possession delays, refunds, compensation, and defects in construction. Further, our services extend to disputes within cooperative housing societies regarding management, redevelopment, and membership, as well as tenancy and landlord-tenant litigation involving eviction, rent claims, and enforcement of leasing rights.
Regulatory & Compliance
The real estate sector is governed by multiple layers of regulation, and compliance is crucial for safeguarding investments. Our firm provides assistance with RERA registrations and ongoing compliances for developers and promoters. We advise on stamp duty, property registration, and property tax matters to ensure transactions are legally sound. For foreign investors and NRIs, we offer expertise in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) regulations and FEMA compliances, allowing them to invest in Indian real estate in accordance with lawful procedures. In addition, we assist with obtaining required government permissions and land use clearances, ensuring projects face no regulatory hurdles.
Real Estate Development & Infrastructure
Our work extends to large-scale development and infrastructure projects, where legal structuring plays a critical role. We provide advisory and documentation services for townships, Special Economic Zones (SEZs), IT parks, and other integrated infrastructure projects. Our expertise covers the drafting and execution of development and redevelopment agreements, whether with housing societies or landowners, to ensure projects progress without legal setbacks. We also advise on slum rehabilitation and redevelopment schemes in compliance with government regulations. In addition, our team assists with infrastructure contracts and PPP (Public-Private Partnership) projects, addressing legal and contractual aspects of highways, metro systems, and other public projects.
