Real estate and construction

Dimitrov, Petrov & Co

Transactional work is at the heart of the Dimitrov, Petrov & Co real estate and construction practice, which assists major international and local clients with all stages of the process, including the initial research, due diligence, negotiations and preparation of legal documentation and the resulting tax implications of the transaction. In addition to this, the team is frequently instructed to advise on the structuring of joint ventures, the development, planning, investment and financing of real estate projects, and the drafting of leasing and maintenance agreements. Boyana Milcheva, who is considered ‘one of the most respected real estate lawyers in the country’, leads the practice alongside Alexander Todorov, who has extensive experience in real estate-related transactions and disputes. Pavlina Ivanova is another key lawyer in the team who primarily focuses on real estate and foreign investment matters.
