Strategic Expansion Miles & Stockbridge recently completed a major merger with Krooth & Altman, expanding capabilities in real estate finance and creating a national GSE and HUD team. This signals cross-sell opportunities to clients of the merged firm, especially in real estate finance and government-backed lending programs.

Real Estate Finance Focus The integration of Krooth & Altman’s real estate finance practice positions the firm to compete for larger financings and complex securitizations involving Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and HUD programs, making it a potential partner for lenders, developers, and borrowers seeking sophisticated financing counsel.

Geographic Reach With offices in Maryland, Washington, D.C., Virginia, and New York and affiliation via TerraLex for global referrals, there are opportunities to cross-sell to regional corporate clients expanding into multi-jurisdictional projects and to assist international clients in U.S. real estate transactions.

Legal Service Diversification As an Am Law 200 firm with a broad platform, there are potential upsell avenues in corporate, litigation, and transactional services to high-growth clients, including technology, healthcare, real estate, and financial services sectors seeking integrated legal solutions.

Market Credibility Active participation in industry recognition and MEDA engagement demonstrates market visibility and community footprint, offering sales leverage for clients prioritizing local partnerships, economic development projects, and reputational alignment with service providers invested in regional growth.
