Robert Kirk Named “Go To Lawyer” for Commercial Real Estate by Michigan Lawyers Weekly

Firm Partner Robert W. Kirk has been named a "Go To Lawyer" for Commercial Real Estate by Michigan Lawyers Weekly magazine.

Now in its fourth year, the “Go To Lawyers” program recognizes leading lawyers in a particular field of law as nominated by their peers.

In addition to Commercial Real Estate, Mr. Kirk’s specialties include municipal/governmental, business, banking and probate law. As part of his Real Estate Practice, he represents all levels of clients from National Owners/Managers of shopping malls to Regional Developers to Local Developers and Owners. This includes acquisition, entitlements, development and leasing. He has represented clients to secure entitlements for hundreds of real estate projects through both the administrative process, as well as through litigation. These include hundreds of thousands of square feet of commercial projects, as well as thousands of residential lots/units.

Michigan Lawyers Weekly defines a “Go To Lawyer” as:

  • A lawyer who is an expert in his or her field, well-versed in the nuances of the case law, statutes and regulations clients will encounter.
  • A lawyer who is experienced and enjoys a record of success, with many cases and/or transactions that give testimony to the quality advice he or she can provide.
  • A lawyer to whom other lawyers make referrals because of his or her expertise and accomplishments.
  • A lawyer who can think creatively and identify all options for a client.
  • A lawyer you would name when a friend from another state calls and says she has a client who needs some legal help in a given part of our state.

Mr. Kirk will join fellow commercial real estate honorees being profiled in a special section that will appear in the July 31 print and digital editions of Michigan Lawyers Weekly.
