Philip Tucker

Philip Tucker is a partner in Herrick's Real Estate practice where he focuses on condominium and cooperative law for developers, lenders and investors in the acquisition, construction, sale and financing of complex commercial, mixed-use and luxury residential projects.

Phil handles every aspect of the planning, development and implementation of projects, from pre-acquisition due diligence to the preparation of offering plan materials and no-action applications, as well as the marketing and sale of property offerings. He collaborates with stakeholders and key members of development teams, architects and engineers, managing agents, sales teams and other attorneys to move projects from conception through approval and ultimately to sale, addressing the numerous expected — and unexpected — issues that can arise over the life of a development.

Phil’s breadth of experience includes guiding developers through the noneviction process, counseling sponsors on post-development matters related to board governance and allegations of mismanagement or construction defects and preparing and advising on leasehold condominiums and not-for-profits.

Phil also assists clients in connection with the integration of commercial, affordable rental and hotel components into mixed-use condominium developments. His practice includes the review of hotel management agreements, assisting in the development of the sales programs for extended-stay and hotel condominiums and preparing homeowners association documents for a variety of projects.

Phil has been recognized as a Rising Star by Thomson Reuters' Real Estate Super Lawyers, which identifies lawyers who have achieved a high degree of excellence and professional achievement.
