From the planning states and capital raising to late-stage development issues, we provide attentive, sound legal advice and guidance at a fraction of the cost of firms with similar talent and expertise.  Clients are regularly impressed by closing statements that show competing firms’ charging more than twice as much as Paesano Akkashian on the same transaction.  Our cost-effective representation has helped Paesano Akkashian secure developments valued at hundreds of millions of dollars. 

What separates Paesano Akkashian’s real estate practice from the competition is our attentiveness.  Developers turn to Paesano Akkashian for the personalized, efficient representation provided by Mr. Paesano.  Together with Devin W. Bone and Nicholas M.
