We offer significant experience in real estate development, having developed a reputation as a “go to” firm for real estate developers across the province more than a decade. As former president of the Newfoundland and Labrador chapter of the Canadian Home Builders Association, and former director of the Newfoundland and Labrador Construction Association, principal lawyer Darren O’Keefe has an intimate knowledge of the legal issues facing land developers and contractors. Having worked side by side with his contractor clients, both as a colleague and trusted legal advisor, Darren not only has a unique understanding of his client’s business needs, but he also has significant and proven experience in helping his clients find practical solutions for their business issues. 

​

We offer a host of services to contractor clients, including advising on land assembly and title issues, negotiating and preparing agreements of purchase & sale, establishing condominium corporations, conveyancing, advice on development agreements, municipal service agreements, construction contracts and financing agreements.

​

We also offer advice on land use by-laws, municipal planning strategies, and related administrative and litigation support in situations where developers find themselves in a dispute with their governing legal authority.
