The Firm


Many of the world's leading businesses – real estate owners and developers, hotel brands, management companies, restaurant groups, and others – seek counsel from our experienced team of transactional attorneys. Our clients rely on our comprehensive legal capabilities in all facets of real estate and hospitality.

Client-centric focus is a key value for us. We founded Zeidel & Associates in 2010 with the mission to provide the high-caliber services and experience of a large firm with the value, flexibility, and personal attention of a boutique. Central to our practice is knowing how to protect our clients’ interests while still closing their transactions quickly and cost effectively. We have firsthand knowledge of the complexities that organizations in the hospitality and real estate industries face and the operational issues associated with these assets.

At Zeidel & Associates, we have the unique advantage of having a 360-degree view of the hospitality and real estate businesses. Our founder, Robin Zeidel, is a former Assistant General Counsel of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., and our attorneys honed their skills at prominent international law firms. We understand what’s important to our clients from all perspectives: owner, developer, tenant, operator, licensee, and brand.
