Lately the prices of real estate and land have been increasing almost
every minute, which naturally makes this branch most attractive for investing
money both by individuals and by legal entities. However this market nowadays
contains many risks, due to deficiencies in the legislation and the quite
specific ‘rules of the game’. In addition to this, one should take into account
the time period and procedure to file the required documents, for instance to
obtain a construction permit.
Moreover, this branch is the focus of attention by non-specialists due
to a simple reason: how many people do you know who are not interested in the
conditions - and where - they live? The relevance of land law to the layman
frequently results in social conflicts and court proceedings involving
residents of a specific district on one side, and builders/state authorities on
the other. It is quite clear that in such a situation both parties need
adequate and qualified legal advice.
The main focuses of our legal
assistance are:
