Taylor Wessing handles matters concerning both existing properties as well as new buildings, including portfolio transactions and project developments, and often advises on the implementation of ESG criteria. The group focuses on data centers, hotels and healthcare, although, under the leadership of Johannes Callet, the practice is also well versed in the development of urban quarters and particularly in the expansion of digital infrastructure. Callet frequently acts across the interface of real estate and corporate law, which represents an expertise that is called upon by investors, especially from France, funds and project developers seeking advice on real estate cross-border purchases and sales. He also handles daily asset management and tenancy law issues. Anja Fenge focuses on drafting and negotiating contracts relating to real estate transactions and project development.
