Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 28, 2016 - Burr & Forman LLP announces that Nashville-based counsel John F. Rogers, Jr. has joined the firm's Real Estate practice. His addition is part of Burr & Forman's continued expansion in Nashville, where it has nearly tripled its attorney count over the last 18 months. Last month, the firm announced its plans to relocate to SoBro in early 2017 with a thirteen-year lease commitment in the emerging downtown neighborhood, thanks to its aggressive growth record.

"John brings key real estate experience to our group of environmental, construction and lending attorneys, which enables us to assist our clients with all of their real estate and related needs."

Rogers has practiced for approximately 27 years in Kentucky and Tennessee and primarily counsels private and publicly traded clients in commercial real estate transactions. Rogers has experience handling matters relating to undeveloped and developed land, office, industrial and retail property acquisitions and divestitures, portfolio transactions, commercial property leasing transactions, payment-in-lieu of taxes transactions and financing transactions (including workouts). In addition, Rogers has experience negotiating asset purchase agreements and other business acquisition and divestiture agreements.

Additionally, Rogers is a member of the Tennessee and Kentucky Bar Associations, the Nashville Bar Association, the Louisville Bar Association and the American Bar Association's Real Property, Probate and Trust Section.

Rogers earned his undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University and his law degree from the University of Kentucky College of Law.
