Current Advisory Services Engagements

• Beginning 2011, Mr. Alpert will be teaching Practical Litigation Management at the University of Oregon Law School.
• Alpert International has been engaged by a well-capitalized investment group to assist in various phases of the bidding process for prospective acquisition, and later development of, FDIC assets. In October, 2009 Alpert International's sophisticated property analysis in an extremely condensed timeframe resulted in the client's successful acquisition of a multifamily complex, which the client now owns. As well, AI assisted the same client in avoiding acquisition of another large-scale loan by uncovering a very narrow deed restriction that, alrhough the underlying property is well-located, could prevent feasible development even if acquired at a severe discount.
• AI was brought in by a lawfirm representing the Plaintiff to provide expert analysis in major ongoing litigation versus a municipal defendant involving a very high profile and complex property in Washington State, where traditional appraisal sources may not have fully served the client's needs.

Previous Advisory Services Engagements

• Assembled a team of high-level legal, financial and analytical consultants to produce a $48 million public/private partnership proposal to provide infrastructure for the first phase of a $2 billion, 3.2 million square foot mixed use project in a high profile location in a major Dallas/Fort Worth suburb. This resulted in substantial interface with prospective users for the project as well as city officials, and the submittal of a detailed, well-documented development proposal on behalf of the property owners.
• Advised the property owner of a key site in a major Seattle suburb on the capacity for city financial involvement in a proposed $1 billion, upscale urban village in the heart of this community. This resulted in the city council approving a Memorandum of Understanding to prospectively locate its proposed $40 million performing arts center on the client's site, as well as a detailed written proposal from the city outlining substantial additional infrastructure and other public revenues the city may provide for the client's project.

• An engagement on behalf of a national hotel developer to initiate a set of complex negotiations between a Dallas suburb, a nearby sports facility and the client to produce a three-way agreement for the client to develop a major hotel and convention facility with substantial city participation. This resulted in the completion of the agreement and the construction, opening and operation of this successful facility.
• Multi-level debt restructuring on behalf of the owner of a landmark hotel facility in Ashland, Oregon. This resulted in a complex set of creditor negotiations which produced a reorganization plan for the client which allowed for the family's retention of of its interest in major assets.
