Ashley Harris joined Adams and Reese in 2003 and focuses on the practice areas of corporate law, transactions, mergers and acquisitions, forestry and real estate. He represents both businesses and individuals in matters including commercial property and timberland acquisitions and sales, real estate development and finance, acquisitions and sales of businesses, complex corporate transactions and financing transactions.
Among the timberland transactions Ashley has worked on is the largest land sale in the United States since the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. That sale occurred when a national company divested itself of most of its real property holdings in the United States and Ashley led a team of attorneys, paralegals and support staff to handle approximately 1.6 million acres of the transaction.
His significant contributions include:
The sale of timberlands ranging in size from 20 acres to 1.6 million acres.
Financing of credit facilities ranging in size from $100,000 to over $1 billion.
Mergers and acquisitions of companies in various industries.
When he’s not in the office, he likes to be outdoors engaging in hunting, fishing and golf. He also enjoys spending time with his family and keeping up on the latest college football games.
