Pillsbury was ranked seventh among “Leading Real Estate Law Firms” by Commercial Property Executive, a publication that provides coverage of the commercial real estate industry’s key trends, issues and concerns. CPE’s rankings took into account the age of each firm, the number of legal and non-practitioner staff and offices, publicly reported revenue, adjusted revenue per employee, the number and experience level of real estate counsel, the length of real estate practice and the main accomplishments of each of the real estate practices.

The magazine noted Pillsbury’s work for client Triple Five Group, the owner of the famed Mall of America, which plans to develop and operate the Dream Meadowlands project in New Jersey. Creating more than 8,900 construction jobs in the next few years and up to 35,000 permanent positions once open, this $3.6 billion project will be the world's largest retail, entertainment, amusement, recreation and tourism project.
