Clark Hill announced today that Blaine Lamperski and John Bonaccorsi have joined its real estate team in Pittsburgh, further bolstering the firm’s bench of real estate practitioners in Pittsburgh and across the country. The duo arrives from Dentons in Pittsburgh.
Lamperski and Bonaccorsi serve clients from Fortune 100 companies and national real estate developers to local companies, developers, and family-owned businesses in a broad scope of national real estate transactions.
“We have been closely connected with several Clark Hill attorneys throughout our careers, and we are excited to now be teammates with them,” Lamperski said. “The firm’s unified platform, national reach, and variety of practice areas were really attractive and gave me a high comfort level to join.”
Lamperski and Bonaccorsi share a focus in real estate for logistics companies, and manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, and other industrial businesses. Bonaccorsi has also developed a niche practice in the retail and hospitality industry and assisting art museums with their commercial contracts.
“Our clients know we have decades of experience representing buyers and sellers and landlords and tenants on all sides of a broad scope of real estate transactions. We are zealous advocates, but we are often praised for taking a collaborative approach with opposing counsel to receive efficient results with the client’s ultimate business goals at the forefront, as we want to leave the client with a healthy relationship with the other side,” Lamperski said.
While having national practices, Bonaccorsi and Lamperski devote much time and focus on projects in the Pittsburgh region. Bonaccorsi is a board member of the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council, and Lamperski has served as a board member for local community development organizations, municipal planning commissions, and zoning hearing boards.
“As native Pittsburghers, the city is very important to us and we like being involved in local projects to help our like-minded clients get the right building in the right location. Urban development is a passion of ours and we try to involve ourselves in the community as much as possible,” Bonaccorsi said.
“I’ve known John and Blaine for many years both personally and professionally and could not be happier to have them working alongside our group in Pittsburgh,” said Clark Hill’s Real Estate Business Unit Leader Josh Farber. “We are very familiar with the quality of their work and breadth of sophistication and are excited to further expand the real estate team we offer to our valued clients.”
