Four years in, MacQueen & Gottlieb (M&G) is making waves throughout the real estate law profession. M&G is undoubtedly a top-tier real estate firm featuring two of the top legal minds in the business. They are young, with the named partners ages 42 and 35, respectively, and are shaking things up not just with what they’re doing, but how they’re doing it. M&G is a team focused and culture driven firm well positioned to handle a variety of real estate matters, specifically litigation, transactional law, business law, and estate planning, in both the commercial and residential environments.

COMPANY STRENGTHS: “Our strength lies in our people and our relationships with those in the real estate industry. We’re small, but in addition to the named partners, our legal and support staff has a wealth of knowledge about real estate law that belies the firm’s young age. We work hard to bring in people who fit for our unique culture and it’s paying off. Outside of the office, we make time to teach classes and get involved in the community.” SURPRISING FACT: “We run the firm like a sports team. It makes things more exciting and keeps people engaged. There’s an atmosphere here that feels more like being in a traditional business than a law firm.” last year 3
