Attorneys
Rose McCabe LeBreton
Rose McCabe LeBreton has over 25 years of experience as a commercial real estate attorney. Her practice areas focus on all aspects of real estate development, including sales, acquisition, leases and land use, as well as title insurance law. She has particular experience in the workout of problem loan transactions and in the resolution of complex title issues, which includes curing the title on 43,500 acres for the largest landowner in St. Tammany Parish. Her practice includes oversight of the resolution of hundreds of title insurance claims for a national title insurance underwriter.
In real estate development, Mrs. LeBreton has been the "legal architect" for Tulane University's RiverSphere Project. Located on the Mississippi River, the project will be a multi-faceted business incubator that focuses on the creation of hydrokinetic energy systems. Development of this project requires in-depth knowledge of riverfront title and regulatory issues, and involves working closely with the Port of New Orleans, the New Orleans Convention Center and the City of New Orleans on behalf of the client.
She has also used her experience to craft the land use rights, conditions and restrictions necessary to unite 10 individually-owned properties in the French Quarter into one working hotel complex, and to develop multiple sites through lease or acquisition for a national bank in Louisiana and Texas.
Mrs. LeBreton's work in both the law and the community was recognized in 2009, when she was selected as a New Orleans CityBusiness Women of the Year honoree.
