Partner -
Gregory G. Gosfield is a partner in the law firm of Klehr, Harrison, Harvey, Branzburg & Ellers LLP, and a member of the Real Estate and Finance Department in its Philadelphia office. He has a depth of experience in counseling clients on debt and equity investments across the life cycle of real estate transactions:
from the structuring and private syndication of senior and subordinate debt and equity, representing institutional and entrepreneurial investors;
through the operations and maintenance of the assets and the entities, representing owners, tenants, lenders and managers;
to exits both by amicable sale or refinance and by contentious transitions in workouts, insolvencies, and turnarounds, representing owners, operators, special servicers, and opportunistic investors.
Mr. Gosfield's knowledge and skill in the negotiation and execution of client strategies, individually and as a team leader, have been recognized in three intensive peer review processes resulting in his being named to the lists of "The Best Lawyers in America," "The Pennsylvania Super Lawyers," and "Chambers USA America's Leading Lawyers for Business."
Mr. Gosfield also implements his continuing commitment to education by lecturing regularly to professional and trade associations and by publishing articles on the structure and use of critical components of real estate transactions. He has been published in The Business Lawyer Today; The Real Property, Probate, and Trust Journal; and The Practical Real Estate Lawyer, among others. His article on "The Structure and Use of Letters of Intent as Prenegotiation Contracts for Prospective Real Estate Transactions" was selected by the ABA's General Practice, Solo, and Small Firm Section for inclusion in its "Best of ABA Section," a compilation of some of the best magazine journal and newsletter articles published by the ABA's sections, forums and divisions.
