About Colin

What types of legal issues do you help individuals and businesses resolve?

I counsel clients through a wide range of real estate and business matters. My real estate practice includes guiding property owners, developers, lenders, investors, and construction companies through acquisitions, dispositions, leasing, construction contracts, zoning, and development projects. On the business side, I assist companies with entity formation, capitalization, joint ventures, business planning, succession strategies, and general counsel on day-to-day business matters. My goal is to provide practical solutions that support growth while protecting client interests and investments.

What skills help you advise the client and achieve the best results or outcomes?

I believe the key to effective counsel lies in curiosity and creative problem solving. By asking the right questions, I gain a deeper understanding of my clients’ objectives and challenges. This allows me to develop tailored strategies that not only address immediate issues but also anticipate future opportunities and risks.

How do any of your community interests or activities facilitate how you represent your client?

For me, one of the most formative activities of my life has been in sports. I played soccer throughout my life and competing in a team environment taught me the importance of teamwork and communication. This has certainly translated to every aspect of my life. I enjoy working with the talented team of lawyers and staff at Rhoades McKee and achieving successes together always leads to a more satisfying conclusion.
