SIMONSEN has significant experience within the areas contract, the legal status of real property, property development and transfer of real property. Transfers of real property and property development with main focus on business premises have been our main focus for a long period of time. Real property projects often involve many legal aspects in which important legal premises and presuppositions are decided on at an early stage of planning.
