Real Estate & Property Law

Diligence, documentation and dispute resolution across the property lifecycle.

Property Due DiligenceTitle VerificationReal Estate TransactionsConstruction DisputesProperty LitigationRent & Tenancy Disputes

Most property disputes are avoidable and begin with an incomplete title check. Our real estate practice starts with diligence — parent documents, encumbrance history, approvals and statutory clearances — before a rupee changes hands.

We document transactions, advise developers and buyers on construction and development agreements, and litigate title, possession and specific-performance matters where negotiation fails. NRI owners rely on us to manage property matters in Chennai and across Tamil Nadu remotely.
