Murphy Schiller & Wilkes LLP has expanded its commercial real estate practice with the addition of Matthew E. Gilson and Brian Kim.
According to the Newark-based firm, Gilson joins its team as a partner and will focus on land use, zoning and redevelopment matters. Working within its statewide land use, zoning and redevelopment practice group, he will represent clients in all aspects of the development approval process, helping developers, landowners and tenants secure approvals for industrial, mixed-use, multifamily and commercial projects before local, county and state boards and agencies.
Prior to joining MSW, Gilson was a partner at a New Jersey-based full-service law firm, according to a news release. He received his law degree from Rutgers Law School in Newark and his undergraduate degree from Seton Hall University, where he graduated cum laude.
Kim, who holds the position of counsel, will focus on transactional commercial real estate matters, supporting MSW’s real estate finance and distressed real estate practice groups. In that role, he will represent national, regional and community banks, private lenders and debt funds in mortgage finance, commercial credit and asset-based finance matters.
The firm added that Kim will operate within the distressed real estate practice, representing borrowers, lenders and special servicers in connection with loan workouts and modifications, loan sales and REO sales. He received his law degree from the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University and his undergraduate degree from Binghamton University.
“We are incredibly excited to have Matt and Brian join our growing team,” said Chris J. Murphy, a founding partner of the firm. “While 2023 was a complicated and uncertain year for many in the commercial real estate legal industry, MSW was able to maintain continued growth, hiring highly talented and dedicated professionals with the ability to service our diverse client base. We believe that Matt and Brian will be great additions to our team and look forward to continued growth throughout 2024.”
