Recently, DLA Piper primarily dealt with the development of digital infrastructure and advised developers and investors on the construction of data centers and related transactions and joint ventures. Also dedicated to this spectrum, Lars Reubekeul often assists private equity investors and asset managers with technology-oriented real estate transactions. Fabian Mühlen is another key contact for transactions, including share deals, asset deals and portfolio transactions, and further advises asset managers on leasing contracts and project managers on ongoing project development matters. In November 2024, Gerold Jaeger (real estate transactions, NPL and portfolio transactions) was brought on board from Clifford Chance.
