Arent Fox combines its national real estate practice with its government contractor services, energy and environmental, finance, tax and government relations practices to provide a full range of services to public and private clients involved in base closing and redevelopment projects as well as privatization of military housing and other government properties.

Each piece of real estate and each project are unique and require different combinations of skills and legal experience. Our Real Estate practice, with more than 80 attorneys, has a range and depth of skills that allows us to customize our project team based on the needs of each project. Our experience in complex real estate projects enables Arent Fox to recognize and understand the critical elements of any development project and guide our clients through the complexities that are present in base privatization, closing, and reuse projects. Our attorneys have experience with Navy, Air Force, and Army projects across the nation, including representation of both government and private-sector participants.

Our government relations attorneys have provided legislative services to communities under consideration for BRAC listing, worked on BRAC matters in the US Senate, and advised the mayor and congresswoman for the District of Columbia in connection with BRAC hearings. We also have advised local governments on establishing local redevelopment authorities.
