Carlos L. Diaz

Exceptional guidance on a complex commercial property acquisition

As a developer navigating a high-stakes commercial acquisition in Jacksonville, I needed an attorney with precise knowledge of both real estate and land use law. Carlos Diaz at Greenberg Traurig was recommended, and his performance was outstanding. Despite his relatively few years in practice, his expertise is formidable. He meticulously guided us through the due diligence process, identifying a critical zoning restriction that would have severely limited our intended use for the property. His analysis was not only thorough but also strategic; he crafted a persuasive argument for a variance and successfully negotiated with the local planning board, securing the necessary approvals. It was clear he leverages the deep resources of his firm while providing direct, personal attention. His recognition in Best Lawyers for Real Estate and Land Use Law is well-deserved, as his work product is of the highest caliber. Carlos is responsive, patient in explaining complex legal concepts, and genuinely invested in achieving the client's business objectives. The transaction closed seamlessly, and we have already engaged him for our next project. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
