The Zoning and Land Use group is comprised of attorneys that possess immense experience in matters concerning governmental agencies and legislative bodies. As a whole, the group brings years of experience, integrity, and established relationships with elected officials, their staffs, various departmental staffs within the City of Philadelphia, and numerous other municipalities in the Delaware Valley area to the representation of every client. Our attorneys have successfully represented clients in major commercial, industrial, retail, and residential projects. Their range of experience encompasses all areas of real estate development, including but not limited to:
- ADA compliance for existing buildings;
- institutional redevelopment (i.e. universities, hospitals and religious);
- code enforcement of municipal violations;
- condemnation of commercial and private parcels;
- environmental;
- historic restoration and redevelopment of properties within historic districts;
- master planning and plan reviews;
- real estate assessments, abatements and tax appeals;
- waterfront development; and,
- subdivisions, variances and as-of-right zoning.
Our Zoning and Land Use group has represented commercial office and retail owners, hospitality groups (including restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues), light and heavy industrial facility operators, outdoor advertising groups, residential home builders, multi-family developers, schools, universities, healthcare institutions, and commercial structure parking owners and operators.
Many of our members within the Zoning and Land Use group appear on a consistent basis before all of the administrative agencies, legislative bodies, and courts throughout the Delaware Valley, as well as State and Federal Agencies. No matter is too big or too small. Our goal is to provide our clients with appropriate counsel as they seek to obtain municipal approvals. Our focus is on making your land use dream an approved reality.
