Heather Derrick provided exceptional counsel during our recent acquisition of a multi-tenant retail property in Nashville. Her deep knowledge of commercial real estate transactions was immediately evident. She meticulously reviewed and drafted the purchase and sale agreement, identifying several potential issues in the due diligence phase that saved us significant future liability. Her background in commercial lending was also invaluable, as she seamlessly coordinated with our bank to ensure the loan documents aligned perfectly with the transaction structure. It’s clear why she is recognized for her work in real estate law. Heather’s professionalism, responsiveness, and practical approach made a complex process remarkably smooth. We achieved a favorable outcome and have already engaged her for drafting the new commercial leases. I recommend her without reservation.
