"I attentively focus on my clients’ objectives and respond to their needs in an efficient and timely manner. I understand that every client has unique issues that need to be addressed or resolved and I provide creative solutions that are tailored to address the respective situation." --Eleni Pantaridis, Business and Real Estate Transactions
Eleni devotes her practice to the structuring and negotiating of agreements related to business expansions, mergers, acquisitions, debt or equity offerings, and both residential and commercial real estate sales, leases, and purchases. Eleni has represented over 30 local governments in telecommunication matters and has handled several complex real estate and business transactions involving leasing, rights of way management, zoning, permitting, land use, licensing, registration, title review, environmental issues, taxation, finance and local, state and federal regulatory compliance. She has also assisted clients in structuring, documenting, collateralizing, and closing asset-based loans drafting and negotiating third-party agreements; preparing UCC Article 9 security interests for inventory, equipment, AR, general intangibles and real estate mortgages.
"I enjoy using my creativity to solve what may appear to be a complicated or impossible situation. I believe that parties in a transaction can agree, the question is how I may help guide them to their destination."
From Eleni's Case Files
Coming to an Agreement: When representing a major South Florida City, a third party telecommunications company wanted to install a Distributive Antenna System (DAS) throughout the City without cluttering the City with antennae. I successfully negotiated a contract which required that the telecommunications provider hide the antennae in decorative light poles and parking meters. I also effectively negotiated hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of free fiber for my client which helped finalize the transaction.
