Lawyers in Real Estate 2020: Olshan’s Eric Goldberg

As a partner at Olshan Frome Wolosky, Eric Goldberg is well-known for his skilled handling of sophisticated real estate structures, financings, workouts, restructurings, acquisitions, and dispositions of all asset classes of real estate.

Over the past several years, Goldberg has represented major clients in numerous widely publicized nationwide deals, including several transactions of note in the high-tech corridors of Seattle (acquisition and subsequent refinancing of several Amazon office buildings) and Silicon Valley, totaling over $1.5 billion dollars; the recent sale of the Miracle Mile Shops in Las Vegas; the purchases of the Citigroup Center Building and The Sheffield in New York City; and the purchase and development of high-end residential condominium projects in New York City.

Goldberg’s representation of clients in highly publicized hotel and commercial transactions has also influenced the changing landscape of South Beach in Miami. Among his key transactions in this area, he has represented hotel owners in Miami Beach on the refinancing of senior and mezzanine debt for the W South Beach and the purchase and sale of the historic Raleigh Hotel.

Goldberg also regularly assist clients in the acquisition and workout of large loan and asset portfolios, restructuring real estate debt, including mezzanine financings and preferred equity and receiverships, foreclosures and bankruptcies. He has assisted clients in the purchase of debt, including The Miami Mart and Hotel in Florida, The Ocean Place Resort Development in New Jersey, various loan portfolios in the New York metropolitan area, and the workout and foreclosure of those mortgages.

It’s for these reasons that we named Eric Goldberg to our inaugural grouping of Lawyers in Real Estate. These are real estate attorneys who have distinguished themselves in both their practice and the larger community.
