Overview

Ellie represents businesses and individuals, both sellers and purchasers, landlords and tenants, and sublandlords and subtenants in the purchase, sale, and leasing of commercial properties. This dual-perspective experience provides clients with a strategic advantage, as Ellie anticipates the concerns and objectives of all parties involved and crafts solutions that protect client interests while facilitating successful closings.

Ellie’s practice spans a wide variety of commercial property types and uses, including industrial facilities, storage facilities, logistics providers, warehouse space, alternative energy projects, office buildings, retail centers, individual storefronts, and telecommunications sites.

Beyond primary purchase agreements and leases, Ellie drafts, reviews, and negotiates the full range of supporting and ancillary agreements that accompany commercial real estate transactions. These include easements, licenses, deeds, estoppel certificates, subordination and non-disturbance agreements, assignments, amendments, guaranties, memoranda of lease, letters of intent, due diligence materials, title and survey objection letters, and closing documents.

Ellie is committed to delivering practical, business-minded counsel that advances client objectives efficiently. Whether guiding a first-time purchaser through acquisition or advising an experienced landlord on a complex multi-tenant leasing program, Ellie tailors each engagement to the client’s specific goals, risk tolerance, and timeline.

Before joining the firm, Ellie worked in-house as a corporate and real estate counsel for a national real estate investment trust and shared communications infrastructure provider. Additionally, she provided real estate and commercial guidance to a video game, consumer electronics, and gaming merchandise retailer, and wireless carriers T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T, as well as several Philadelphia-based law firms specializing in telecommunications and real estate transactions.
