Real Estate law
Sophisticated counsel for property owners, investors, and real estate professionals across Tennessee.
Real estate matters rarely stay simple — a straightforward purchase can turn into a title dispute, a lease can become adversarial, and a property structure can require years of foresight to get right. Harrison Litigation Team advises property owners, investors, businesses, developers, buyers, and sellers across a broad range of real estate matters, from contracts and transactions through development, property transfers, and litigation when disputes can't be avoided.
Real Estate Contracts & Transactions
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating purchase and sale agreements, FSBO transactions, seller-financed transactions, land contracts, lease-option agreements, and other real estate contracts — helping buyers, sellers, and property owners protect their interests before they sign.
Deeds & Property Transfers
Preparing and reviewing deeds, quitclaim deeds, and other property transfer documents to help individuals, investors, and businesses transfer real estate interests accurately and with confidence.
Commercial Real Estate & Leasing
Representing businesses, property owners, investors, landlords, and tenants in commercial real estate matters, including lease drafting, review and negotiation, purchase and sale agreements, and other commercial property transactions.
Disputes & Litigation
We represent clients in quiet title actions, boundary disputes, title and ownership disputes, fraudulent conveyance claims, and other adversarial real estate proceedings — protecting your property rights and interests when a dispute requires legal action.
Business Planning for Real Estate Professionals & Investors
We advise real estate professionals and investors on acquisitions, contracts, ownership structures, entity formation, joint ventures, financing arrangements, and the legal framework behind their portfolios — helping clients structure opportunities thoughtfully and plan ahead rather than react after a problem arises.
Zoning, Permitting & Land Use
Guiding property owners and developers through zoning classifications, planning commission approvals, and permitting requirements before they become costly obstacles.
Property Structures — HPRs, HOAs & CCRs
We establish Horizontal Property Regimes ("HPRs"), draft HOA bylaws, and prepare Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CCRs) for residential and development projects — creating the foundational documents that govern shared and multi-unit properties.
Easements & Right of Ways
Resolving disputes and negotiating agreements involving easements, access rights, and right-of-way issues between neighboring properties.
Short-Term Rental Compliance
Advising property owners on the regulatory and contractual issues specific to short-term rental properties in Tennessee.
