In addition to property joint ventures, she advises on the purchase and sale of individual properties and property portfolios, financing, development and commercial leasing. She also works with clients in the hospitality sector.

“Frost is a fantastic addition to our New York team and our U.S. real estate practice. Her valuable experience will help to elevate our offering in the real estate sector, particularly given her impressive background in both property investment deals and commercial, residential, and construction matters. Her proven track record in negotiating joint venture deals, an increasingly popular choice of structure in the New York market, is also a key asset for us. We look forward to Arielle playing a leading role in some of the city’s most exciting projects,” said David Guin.

“Withers’ broad platform of services, including its core focus on advising private capital, provides a great foundation on which to further develop my real estate practice. I really look forward to collaborating with my new colleagues to achieve our clients’ aims and provide exceptional client service,” said Frost.

Frost eared her B.A. with great distinction from McGill University and her J.D. magna cum laude from Brooklyn Law School.
