For over 30 years, Mike Westover has represented lenders, owners, developers, investors and the holders of other real estate interests in a wide variety of transactions throughout the United States.

Mike has developed a particular expertise in the area of real estate finance. He has represented national banks and other institutional lenders in hundreds of sophisticated financing transactions. He also frequently represents agents and participants in syndicated credit facilities.  In addition to lender representation, Mike regularly works with owners and developers in connection with the financing of their real estate projects. This has included representing some of the country's largest developers of apartment communities in several billion dollars of financings.
