Members of the Business, Banking and Real Estate Department provide representation to individuals, banks, businesses and corporations who come to us with a broad range of legal issues. Whether assisting a home buyer with a straightforward real estate transaction; guiding a business owner through an incorporation or merger; or representing a bank or borrower in a complex loan transaction, our attorneys bring a wealth of experience and professionalism to the issues at hand.

This practice area involves the representation of local banks as well as local business entities requiring expert legal counsel in a variety of transactions. The Real Estate Practice deals with residential and commercial transactions including the sale and purchase of real estate as well as the negotiation of sophisticated lease agreements and tax-free exchanges. The Real Estate Practice also focuses on the practical challenges of zoning and land use regulations.

The scope of our expertise in real estate and commercial lending and borrowing is broadened as a result of our work done for banks and other financial institutions in the enforcement of creditor's rights within bankruptcy and in workouts and collection matters outside the bankruptcy venue. This expertise is further enhanced by our attorney's experience in drafting documents which are enforceable and protective of clients' rights, as well as in their familiarity with loan documentation. The transactional work of the firm is buttressed by the efforts of the litigation department.

In spite of the many changes in the business and commercial landscape in Chester County, the firm has retained and increased its client base due, in large measure, to the many long-term relationships that have developed during the course of representation. These long-term relationships speak to the high level of client satisfaction enjoyed by Buckley, Brion, McGuire, Morris & Sommer LLP as well as to the level of professional service rendered.
