Here’s why you’ll enjoy working with her.
Suzanne represents landlords, tenants, buyers, and sellers in complex commercial and large residential real estate leases and sale transactions throughout New England and beyond. Her experience spans a wide variety of industries, including renewable energy development, transportation, public-private partnerships, and retail shopping centers. Building on her experience in corporate law and as a real estate broker, Suzanne is uniquely familiar with all facets of a real estate transaction – from initial site selection through title clearance, financing, and construction. Her goal with each client is the same: to help them meet their real estate and overarching business objectives.
Prior to joining Bernstein Shur, Suzanne practiced in the private equity group at an international law firm in Boston and as an in-house counsel with IDEXX Laboratories, and later established a successful business as a residential real estate broker. Suzanne’s attention to detail, years of negotiation practice, and dedication to client service make her a strong partner to each of her clients.
But that’s not all. Suzanne is also very knowledgeable about…
- Title clearance and complex title insurance underwriting
- Finance
- Subdivision law
- Condominium development
- Business entity formation
- Drafting agreements and resolving contract disputes
- Conservation easements
In her former life, Suzanne was:
- An Associate Broker at RE/MAX By the Bay and Bean Group
- An Instructor at the Maine Center for Real Estate Studies
- Associate General Counsel at IDEXX Laboratories
- A business law associate in the Boston office of Goodwin Procter
- Law Clerk to Justice Jon D. Levy of the Maine Supreme Judicial Court
When Suzanne isn’t working, she is…
Figure skating, coaching soccer, and spending time with her family and friends.
