Eversheds Sutherland Adds Real Estate Veteran John Busillo in New York
John J. Busillo, a 30-year real estate veteran, has joined Eversheds Sutherland‘s New York office as a partner in the Real Estate Practice group. Busillo joins Eversheds Sutherland from Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer.
In a release, the firm said Busillo concentrates his practice on commercial real estate finance and the workout and disposition of distressed real estate. He advises major financial institutions, commercial and investment banks, insurance companies, public sector entities, real estate investment trusts and real estate developers in numerous sophisticated transactions. These transactions involve office buildings, regional shopping centers, hotels, resorts, multi-family residential complexes, mixed-use projects, healthcare-related projects, single-tenant retail sites, warehouse and industrial sites and commercial and residential condominium and cooperative projects.
Following Busillo’s arrival, John W. Benson, an Eversheds Sutherland real estate partner who previously divided his time between the legal practices in the Atlanta and New York offices, is relocating his real estate structured finance practice full time to New York.
