Polsinelli Deepens Texas Real Estate Capabilities with Addition of Austin Green
Polsinelli is pleased to announce that commercial real estate attorney Austin Green has joined the firm’s Dallas office as a shareholder in its Real Estate Practice. Green’s arrival expands Polsinelli’s Texas real estate team and strengthens the firm’s ability to advise developers, real estate funds, REITs, institutional owners and investors on complex investment, development, leasing and land use matters across Texas and nationwide.
“Texas remains a key market for our clients and a strategic focus for our national real estate platform,” said Kraig M. Kohring, Chair of Polsinelli’s Finance, Investment Strategies & Real Estate Department. “Austin brings sophisticated transactional experience and a practical understanding of how real estate projects move from acquisition through development, leasing and disposition. His experience complements our existing capabilities in Texas and strengthens the integrated counsel we provide clients nationwide.”
Green represents developers, real estate investment funds, REITs, institutional owners and investors in commercial real estate transactions throughout Texas and across the United States. He advises clients across the real estate investment and development lifecycle, including acquisitions and dispositions, development, commercial leasing, financing and asset management. His experience includes single-asset and multi-property portfolio transactions involving industrial, multifamily, office, retail, mixed-use and undeveloped land.
Green has particular experience in industrial development, advising clients on site acquisition, development agreements, financing, leasing and disposition.
“Austin is an important addition to our Dallas office and our growing real estate team across Texas,” said Brian A. Bullard, Dallas Office Managing Partner. “His experience across acquisitions, leasing, development and land use will help clients advance complex projects, and his practical, business-minded approach is a strong fit with how we serve clients.”
Green’s arrival follows the recent addition of Counsel Ashley Fleishman in Houston and several associates in Dallas and Fort Worth, further expanding Polsinelli’s real estate bench across Texas.
“Throughout my career, I have focused on helping clients execute complex real estate transactions with practical, business-oriented advice,” Green said. “Polsinelli’s collaborative culture, deep real estate bench, strong Texas presence and national platform make the firm a natural fit for my practice and clients. I look forward to working with my new colleagues and helping clients pursue opportunities in an evolving real estate market.”
Green earned his J.D. from Loyola University New Orleans College of Law and his B.S. in Business Management from Louisiana State University.
