Mr. Patel’s clients include: real estate developers, owners, managers and lending institutions. He also works with entrepreneurs in small to mid-size enterprises and foreign companies doing business in the U.S.
With Mr. Patel’s experience, he can actively provide counsel to those engaged in the acquisition, development and management of hotels, apartments, gas stations, shopping centers, offices, golf courses and condominium projects.

He counsels clients in workouts and reorganization of commercial real estate loans; consults with business owners in company and partnership structures, including partnership disputes; advises clients on inbound international investments; and drafts and negotiates joint-venture agreements among companies in the U.S. and India.
