Pepe & Hazard trial and appellate lawyers bring decades of real estate experience to bear in state and federal courts and arbitration forums throughout the country.  We represent developers, property owners and managers in all forms of commercial and industrial real estate disputes.

But our lawyers bring much, much more to the litigation arena than mere knowledge of real estate and leasing law.  We are active leaders in the industry associations that are critical to the success of our clients.  We know the real estate business and the markets in which our clients compete.  We work closely with them to understand their goals and the unique practical and economic challenges they face.  And we work with them to forge a litigation plan and budget to achieve success within agreed upon economic parameters knowing that success is measured by their stated financial and business objectives.  We know that litigation is a tool to be employed with the client's objectives firmly in mind.  The key to success is not just good counsel, but good communication.
