Real Estate and Property law continues to be an important sector of the legal practice in Sri Lanka. But as is the general case in new and active markets, there are many manipulations of the market and potential loopholes in the relevant laws. As a result, it is necessary that proper advice and guidance should be obtained by both the seller as well as the buyer when entering into transactions relating to Real Estate and property.
Capital Law Chambers & Corporate Consultants (CCCC) advises and handles all aspects of both residential and commercial property related transactions in the Island. The businesses handled by us range from sales and purchases of all types of property, mortgages and leases, to the more complex corporate-related real estate transactions such as acquisitions, development agreements and joint ventures involving real estate, construction agreements and much more wide range of conveyancing requirements. We also provide comprehensive services to those engaged in high-rise developments and Condominium Complexes.
Every client is represented with the notion that their individual requirements are
“unique”. That is where flexibility matters. We assist and advise clients with foreign

Law and other sector-specific legislation. We also assist with the preparation of

consideration of foreign investment proposals. If required, we act as an
intermediary in negotiations with appropriate government bodies during the
approval process.

investment proposals in the recent years. To cater to the concerns pertaining to
investments, the Firm has in-house and outside network of experts working
