Sabine Usinger, Managing Partner at SammlerUsinger Rechtsanwälte Partnerschaft mbB, is a lawyer based in Berlin, specialising in real estate with a particular focus on property transactions. Ms Usinger advises institutional investors, housing companies, developers and public-sector entities. She further provides legal counsel on complex project developments, including all matters related to special-purpose properties in the logistics and infrastructure sectors. With many years’ experience advising on complex, high-value real estate projects, she combines legal precision with a practical understanding of commercial realities.
Ms Usinger noted: “My services are primarily geared around real estate transactions and lease agreements – particularly for special-purpose properties – hotel lease and management contracts, agreements in facility and asset management, as well as centre management.
“What sets me apart is my combination of legal expertise in complex real estate and commercial matters with a practical, solutions-orientated approach. My in-depth knowledge of contracts allows me to support clients throughout the entire life cycle of a property – from acquisition and development to operation and restructuring.”
Another key differentiator is that Ms Usinger serves as a notary in Berlin. This dual qualification enables her to offer integrated legal and notarial services, which adds efficiency, reduces transaction risks and provides clients with a one-stop solution, especially in complex real estate deals.
Clients value her comprehensive industry insight, attention to detail and the ability to bridge legal precision with commercial pragmatism. Moreover, she brings extensive experience in advising on cross-border transactions and internationally active clients, particularly in connection with investments in German commercial real estate.
She added: “I advise a broad spectrum of clients across the real estate and infrastructure sectors. These include institutional investors, housing companies, family-owned businesses, project developers, fund management companies and banks. My client portfolio also comprises public law entities, municipal companies, property developers, medium-sized enterprises and architects, as well as utility and waste management providers. This wide-ranging client base reflects the trust placed in my legal expertise – and my ability to provide targeted, practice-orientated solutions for complex legal challenges.”
