Trusted counsel. Connected expertise.

When a project calls for expertise outside the legal realm, our partner network steps in—bringing together the right minds to move things forward.

More Than Counsel—Your Partner in Progress.

Strong legal work is more than paperwork—it’s about understanding business goals and building strategies that last.

KAP works in the following areas of practice: 

We represent buyers and sellers across all real estate asset classes, guiding clients through every stage of complex transactions with strategies aligned to their business goals and market conditions.

We advise developers and investors through all phases of real estate projects—acquisitions, dispositions, financing, and partnerships—across multifamily, office, industrial, and retail sectors.

We counsel entrepreneurs and established businesses on entity formation, governance, joint ventures, and mergers, offering strategic legal guidance tailored to each client’s growth and succession plans.

We negotiate and structure leases for landlords and tenants across office, retail, industrial, medical, and multifamily properties, ensuring terms that protect interests and support long-term value.

We represent both borrowers and lenders in structuring acquisition, construction, and refinancing transactions, ensuring financing arrangements meet regulatory standards and business objectives.

We represent individuals in home and investment property transactions, providing the same strategic and detail-oriented counsel used in complex real estate and wealth preservation matters.

We assist nonprofits with real estate, governance, compliance, and transactional matters, providing legal guidance that supports their missions and operational sustainability.

We make the time to provide reduced fee and pro bono work for individuals and business clients. Giving back to the community is part of KAP.

Driven by expertise and united by purpose, our team ensures every client partnership is built on trust, insight, and results.

How We Work—and Why It Works.

At KAP, we see our clients as partners. Strong legal work is more than paperwork—it’s about understanding business goals and building strategies that last.

We focus on real estate and corporate law, guiding clients through purchases, sales, leases, loans, investments, and business ventures. Whether you’re starting your first business or managing large, complex projects, we help move your matter forward with clarity and confidence.

What sets us apart is our partnership approach—responsiveness, attention to detail, and a commitment to aligning legal solutions with long-term objectives. Many of our client relationships grow well beyond the first deal, adapting as needs change over time.

Our practice is network-driven. When the deal requires it, we connect clients to trusted partners in the field:   attorneys, brokers, lenders, technical and design professionals, and other specialized service providers who can make a difference in achieving results.
