Real Estate and Construction Law, Czech Republic

We advise in relation to many types of real estate assets, including administrative, retail, hotel & accommodation and leisure buildings, logistics and residential buildings. We have also rich experience in construction of power generating facilities (solar power stations, wind parks, biomass incinerators).

Our team has in-depth knowledge of the legal aspects of construction, development, investment, leasing and asset management models and financing structures.

We also provide legal advice at all the stages of construction and permit proceedings. Due to the public’s sensitivity, especially with respect to large infrastructure and investment projects, all legal aspects of these projects should be taken into account.

Our office is a member of the Association of Construction Entrepreneurs.
