Timberlands

Located at the edge of the North Maine Woods, Eaton Peabody has been recognized for decades for its varied and sophisticated timberlands practice. Our clients include owners of timberlands in both Maine’s organized and unorganized territories, owners and operators of forest products manufacturing facilities, land management companies, paper mills, independent logging contractors, transporters, forest products brokers, forest industry trade groups and conservation organizations. We also represent developers, purchasers, institutional lenders, and title insurance companies seeking the expertise and capacity to handle large and sophisticated transactions involving legal, title, and operational issues unique to Maine’s natural resources and timberlands.

Our timberland clients range from owners of very large timberland tracts to individuals involved in small land conservation projects. We have the capability to structure and implement large, highly sophisticated transactions, providing advice on such diverse matters as real estate title, project financing, tax, environmental and land use planning, antitrust, and corporate planning and governance. We also have extensive experience in the structuring of conservation easements and other transactions for land conservation organizations.
