Real estate deals are made—or lost—in the details. We help clients buy, sell, and finance commercial investment properties with clear documents and a smooth path to closing.
Development requires coordinated strategy across contracts, approvals, and risk. We support developers and property owners from early-stage structuring through municipal processes (including planning and zoning) and development documentation.
Michigan liquor licensing is highly regulated and can involve both state and local approvals. We assist with license transfers, new applications, changes to premises, and compliance planning—focused on avoiding delays and protecting operations.
A violation can put a license—and a business—at risk. We represent licensees in MLCC enforcement matters, including response strategy, negotiation, and hearings aimed at protecting the license and minimizing disruption.
We advise hotel owners and operators on acquisitions, real estate and leasing issues, licensing considerations, and contract needs that arise in hospitality operations.
We advise clients on licensing and regulatory strategy for alcohol and tobacco businesses — including breweries, wineries, and distilleries — covering manufacturing and wholesaling considerations where applicable. We assist with federal requirements through the TTB and Michigan tobacco wholesaling matters through the Michigan Department of Treasury, and we integrate licensing planning into entity formation and transaction structuring.
We represent cannabis operators, investors, and startups on licensing and transaction matters in Michigan. Our work includes Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA) licensing across license types, municipal approval strategy and support, transaction counsel where licensing is part of the deal, and cannabis-related real estate planning tied to regulatory requirements.
