Zoning, Land Use and Real Estate
For clients who wish to develop their property or change its use, we regularly pursue the necessary permits or zoning changes, sue recalcitrant municipalities, or defend lawsuits and administrative proceedings brought by neighbors opposed to the proposed use.
Our trial lawyers regularly litigate other disputes arising from the ownership of real estate, including enforcing purchase and sale agreements, commercial landlord/tenant litigation, disagreements about access rights, disputes between real estate lenders and borrowers, real estate tax disputes, and eminent domain matters.
Mintz Levin litigators work closely with our real estate and environmental attorneys, serving clients that range from developers of subsidized housing or commercial uses, to owners of regional shopping malls or factories or office towers, to real estate lenders and borrowers, to hospitals, colleges, or businesses with land use or real estate problems.
