I have worked with the real estate team of Hoge Fenton for a number of years, and have utilized their real estate services in a number of areas from Land Use, Tax Deferred Exchanges and Transaction work including assisting us with various due diligence projects. What I have enjoyed most about the experiences with Hoge Fenton is their client service and technical expertise.  Regardless of the size of the transaction, or the difficulty of the deal, we have always felt well represented and that our relationship is valued. The attorneys working within the Real Estate group are highly skilled, polished, professional individuals who honestly care about their clients and the quality of work they provide and are always working towards finding solid business and legal solutions. As the head of the Real Estate group for our company, it is my responsibility to select counsel that best suits our needs while being conscious of containing costs and Hoge Fenton continually meets or exceeds my expectations. I highly recommend the services of Hoge Fenton for any and all real estate needs.

Nolan Fry  |  CEMEX USA

My position is Director of Real Estate, U.S. Operations, for CEMEX USA. Our company has a significant presence in Northern California. We are represented in that area by attorneys in the Real Estate Group at Hoge, Fenton, Jones & Appel. Specifically, we work with Geoff Etnire (the group leader). There are other real estate specialists in their group, available as needed.

I have lots of experience working with attorneys across the country. Geoff and his group compare favorably with any group of attorneys that I have met. They are technically proficient and have a broad range of skills, specialties and experience. The factors that I like best are their high level of client service and their ability to respond quickly to our needs. They blend with our corporate management and then we all approach the issues as a team.  I recommend them highly.

We believe strongly that:

• We must add to our clients’ bottom lines
• The earlier we can get involved in a transaction, land use proceeding, or controversy, the greater the value we can create for our client
• Our clients can depend upon our judgment calls

• We appreciate and value the speedy transaction, but never at the sacrifice of quality
