Lynn Goessling has more than two decades of experience in commercial real estate and business law. She has a number of long-standing clients – a testament to her broad skill set and trustworthiness.

Lynn represents a diverse range of clients, from developers and landowners to privately held businesses and public companies. Active in all sectors of the commercial real estate industry – including multifamily housing, office, retail and restaurants, hospitality, health care and life sciences, senior care and rehabilitation facilities, and industrial development – Lynn is often called upon to counsel clients through acquisitions and dispositions, easements, leasing, sales, complex title issues, land development matters and projects involving economic development and municipal or special financing incentives, including tax abatement, tax increment financing (TIF) and various development districts. Her experience also extends to construction, utility infrastructure, zoning and environmental remediation.

Having represented both tenants and landlords, Lynn has a unique perspective in guiding real estate clients in honing their vision and achieving strategic goals. As such, she has extensive experience negotiating multimillion-dollar build-to-suit and design-build leases.

Based on her broad experience in areas ranging from employment law to real estate underwriting, Lynn has skillfully served as outside corporate counsel and built seamless cross-discipline teams to serve her clients’ diverse legal needs.
