Alison Woodrow

Alison is of counsel in the Real Estate practice, where she advises developers, investors, property owners, and landlords on commercial real estate transactions involving office, industrial, and retail properties. With extensive experience across acquisitions, development, leasing, financing, and dispositions, she guides clients through the legal and business considerations that occur throughout the life cycle of a real estate investment.

Alison frequently works with developers from the earliest stages of a project, helping them acquire raw land, negotiate purchase agreements, and address issues that arise as a property moves toward development. Whether a client is developing a retail center, an outparcel, or an industrial property, she considers how acquisition terms, financing requirements, and leasing decisions affect the project’s long-term viability. Her involvement often continues through construction and permanent financing, lease negotiations, and the eventual sale of the asset.

In her leasing practice, Alison represents both landlords and tenants, negotiating leases for properties ranging from individual retail spaces to large office buildings and resolving lease disputes and enforcement issues.

Alison approaches each transaction with an understanding of the business pressures influencing her clients’ decisions. She takes time to listen to their priorities, particularly financing considerations and anticipated exit strategies, and helps them assess risks and evaluate practical options for moving forward. By considering both the immediate transaction and the client’s broader investment objectives, she provides counsel that supports informed decision-making and long-term business goals.

Alison is a member of the State Bar of Georgia’s Real Property Section. Her community-focused real estate experience has included work involving facilities development for the Commission on Homelessness, residential real estate closings for Habitat for Humanity, and a land acquisition for Camp Twin Lakes. She also assisted a local city’s urban redevelopment agency with the redevelopment of a 35-acre site to improve infrastructure, strengthen economic vitality, and enhance community amenities, including playgrounds and a greenway.
