Syndication attorney: all-in-one?

[Chihiro Kurokawa]

Does your attorney handle the securities AND real estate side of things, giving you a one-stop-shop for all things legal with your deal from A to Z?

I'm wondering whether this is more common, or if syndicators more often use a separate securities and real estate attorney. I'd also like to ask your opinions on pros and cons of both. Thanks!

We only do the securities side, never the real estate side. Generally speaking, our clients are closing in a variety of states and need separate counsel licensed in that state for the real estate side. Hope this helps!
