Attorney Information
Overview
Mr. Schulten began his practice in 1979 representing management in employment and labor disputes. In 1981, he joined a general practice firm, handling labor issues for the firm's clients, as well as a variety of corporate and commercial litigation matters. In 1986, he formed Schulten and Associates, representing clients throughout the United States, both in litigation and transaction work.
Since forming the firm, Mr. Schulten has written numerous articles and presented lectures and seminars on a variety of legal issues, including employment law, enforcement of judgments, federal practice and procedure, mergers and acquisitions and real estate development. He has served as outside general counsel for several national companies, overseeing litigation in all state and federal courts, as well as handling general commercial matters. His practice is now focused on commercial transactions: real estate development, secured lending, tax-credit housing, documentation of purchase and sale transactions, and structuring commercial entities. Since 1995, well over $2 billion dollars in commercial real estate transactions have been completed through the firm's representation.
