Foley & Lardner LLP is featured in Law.com following the firm’s selection as a finalist for Real Estate Firm of the Year at the 2026 Florida Legal Awards.
The group’s standout work in 2025 involved major real estate projects across the state, notably the acquisition of Major League Baseball’s Tampa Bay Rays, the purchase of the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa in Ponte Vedra Beach, the sale of four Hampton Golf-managed golf and country clubs in Fort Myers, Ocala, St. Augustine, and Brooksville, and various other mixed-use development projects.
“These achievements have burnished our reputation as trusted legal advisers in the Florida real estate industry,” said Foley partner David Cook, chair of the firm’s national Real Estate Practice. “Trust is built by becoming a go-to authority in areas that others can’t easily replicate.”
“Our Florida partners also bring years of experience in the state’s unique asset classes, such as luxury hospitality, sports, post-acute care and senior housing, and recreation,” added Cook. “They have been lead counsel to several of the most recognized waterfront developments in Florida and have been involved in the financing of over 100 private golf clubs, public golf facilities, marinas, and destination resorts. Our experience in leading projects vital to Florida’s economic development has created a practice that is a market leader.”
