In matters of zoning and land use, landowners or prospective buyers are often puzzled by regulations, requirements, and limitations. While a real estate agent or seller may offer useful information and good deals, they cannot advise purchasers of all potential legal pitfalls in a proposed purchase or sale of real property. An experienced and dedicated zoning and land use lawyer, on the other hand, can offer the depth of counsel that a prospective landowner needs to make the right decisions and put development plans in motion.
