Services
Attorney Dufour practices in the areas of real estate, both commercial and residential, commercial and business law, environmental law, and estate planning.
In the area of real estate, he handles many different types of transactions, and has extensive experience in assisting clients with issues relating to environmentally contaminated properties.
He also advises business owners in a wide variety of industries, including manufacturing.
Attorney Dufour graduated from Brown University in 1981 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Environmental Studies.
Real estate development and transactions are governed by many different laws, regulations and policies, all of which continue to grow increasingly complex.
Many real estate transactions appear to be routine matters, but changes in laws and regulations can trip up even the most careful individuals.
Residential and commercial real estate acquisitions are both significant investments and should not be undertaken without the guidance of experienced professionals.
For most people, the purchase of a residence or second home is one of the biggest investments they will make.
My firm represents banks and other lenders and borrowers in connection with many different kinds of commercial finance transactions including commercial real estate finance, commercial lending, asset-based financing, small business lending (including SBA financing), and construction loans.
In addition, I have experience as in-house attorney for a large national bank negotiating loan workouts and restructurings.
I can prepare documentation and conduct closings in a manner which will ensure that the lender's interests are completely protected.
Environmental regulation of businesses and real estate has become increasingly complex.
It affects many different types of businesses and transactions, particularly (but certainly not exclusively) real estate transactions.
Moreover, the penalties for not complying with applicable laws can be severe and can far outweigh the original cost of compliance.
There are, however, also many ways in which environmental regulation has incorporated reasonable exceptions to provide relief where stringent regulation is not needed.
Buying or selling a home is probably the most significant financial transaction that anyone undertakes in their lifetime.
While this can be an exciting time, without the proper legal guidance, the process can be frustrating, overwhelming and more expensive than necessary.
Even if there are no obvious disagreements between the Buyer and Seller it is advisable for each party to enter into real estate transactions with their own attorney who can help steer them away from common pitfalls and make the transaction an enjoyable experience.
