When you need a seasoned attorney with extensive experience in retail real estate law, we’re here.   At Hinckley Allen & Snyder, our seasoned attorneys represent a wide range of retail clients in real estate transactions and projects ranging from strip malls to lifestyle centers, from regional malls to power centers, and from big box projects to mixed-use developments.

We offer a client-focused, multi-disciplined approach to serving the retail industry throughout New England as well as other regions of the country.   Our retail group attorneys are extremely familiar with issues not found in other real estate transactions and documents.  With us, you can avoid costly delays, unexpected expenses, and frustrated expectations that can result from a less experienced attorney’s unfamiliarity with key matters affecting retail projects and transactions.  Our colleagues offer expertise in such areas as tax, environmental, bankruptcy, and construction law and, when needed, litigation.  This breadth and depth of expertise provides our retail clients with seamless access to all legal services needed for successful retail projects.

Our clients appreciate our fast turnaround, our ability to simplify complicated matters, our industry knowledge, and our focus on the bottom line.   To enhance our knowledge of retail issues and trends that are critical to the success of our clients, we maintain active membership in the International Council of Shopping Centers and other trade groups.  In fact, our attorneys are frequent speakers on retail topics.
