If you are involved in the development of commercial, office, hotel, residential or industrial projects, our team can help you move efficiently through the complex regulatory and political landscape. Our attorneys can assist you in getting a project planned, financed and completed quickly while working with oversight agencies to get approval for your development.
Bringing a range of experience to our practice, we know how land use and zoning agencies work. We analyze those agencies, statutes and directives and advise clients on how they apply when they finance, acquire, develop, sell, litigate or otherwise participate in the real estate marketplace.
