Paul Hastings Enhances Market-Leading Real Estate Practice With DC Partner Additions

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a move that enhances the corporate capabilities of its preeminent, full-service Real Estate practice, Paul Hastings LLP today announced that Brian Ashin and Alan Noskow have joined the firm as partners in its Washington, D.C. office.

Recognized as a “Rising Star” by The National Law Journal, Ashin counsels private equity sponsors, family offices, institutional investors, real estate funds and real estate investment trusts (REITs), as well as operators and developers, in complex acquisitions, dispositions, financings, joint ventures, restructurings, development transactions, REIT matters, and leasing and construction agreements covering all real estate asset classes, including data centers, office, multifamily, build-to-rent, industrial, manufactured housing, mixed use, marina, hospitality and retail assets.

Noskow’s practice focuses on representing private equity real estate sponsors in joint ventures, acquisitions, dispositions and related matters. He works with private equity funds, institutional investors and family offices on complex transactions involving all classes of real estate assets, with a focus on data centers, industrial, multifamily and office. He also advises traditional private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies on M&A, debt and equity financings, and general corporate matters.

“We think this is a good time in the cycle to continue to build in the real estate sector and Brian and Alan are a fantastic complement to our preeminent real estate platform,” said firm Chair Frank Lopez, “Our strategy and focus are to provide our real estate clients with the top-tier counsel needed to execute across equity and finance on their most sophisticated and high-profile deals.”

Ashin and Noskow, who join from King & Spalding, follow the arrival of REIT tax partner Christopher Mangin, Jr., in January of this year, REIT capital markets partners Scott Chase and Kerry Johnson last October, and real estate finance partner David Broderick last March.

“Paul Hastings’ Real Estate practice is unmatched in the market, and the firm’s recent strategic additions in the space only further cement its position,” said Ashin. “I could not be more excited to continue collaborating with Alan at Paul Hastings and bring everything its platform has to offer to our clients.”

“The depth and breadth of Paul Hastings’ global real estate practice is not only compelling for our clients but for us as well,” added Noskow. “We look forward to providing our clients with the level of service this new foundation offers.”
