Experience

Paula specialises in advising sellers and buyers on acquisitions and disposals of assets throughout all phases of the transaction, including the due diligence process, drafting and negotiating transactional documents and coordinating and assisting with the closing of the transaction. She also is experienced in drafting and negotiating all types of real estate contracts, such as lease agreements (including within the framework of complex sale & leaseback transactions), delegated development contracts, project management agreements, property management agreements, construction contracts, etc.

Paula is also a specialist in urban planning law. She has acted for international clients in complex land acquisitions and led urban planning due diligences, a key issue in this type of acquisition.

The combination of her real estate/transactional expertise and her urban planning knowledge plays a key role in transactions that are increasingly popular with international funds, such as forward funding transactions (acquisition of land and formalisation of a delegated development contract) as well as forward purchase or “turnkey” transactions.
