Services
Whether you are seeking approval for a development, facing a regulatory enforcement action, or defending a professional license, you need experienced counsel. We represent private clients and government bodies across the full range of local-government and administrative-law matters.
Our lawyers have represented developers, contractors, business owners, and homeowners — and have also advised municipalities, counties, and boards — and we have litigated enforcement actions brought by a range of state and federal agencies.
How We Help
Background
Local-government law governs zoning, land use, annexation, and eminent domain — the approvals and disputes that shape development. Administrative law refers to the state and federal regulations that give rise to agency enforcement actions, where violating agency rules can lead to significant penalties, fines, and the suspension or revocation of professional licenses and permits. We handle both sides of this work, for private clients and for government bodies.
