Rely On Us to Handle Complicated Matters
A lot has to happen before construction on a commercial or residential subdivision property commences. Municipalities — towns, cities, and counties — have an interest in regulating land use. Public hearings, committee meetings, and veritable reams of paperwork are often required, particularly if an area needs to be rezoned for commercial activity.
A disagreement about zoning might have to be resolved via real estate litigation, which is a strength of our attorneys at Miles Hansford & Tallant, LLC.
The groundwork for a successful project begins at the planning stages. Running into difficulty after the process is underway can lead to delays — setbacks that are costly not only in time but in revenue as well. Making sure you have a seasoned real estate legal team on board from the beginning can make the process smoother and keep delays to a minimum.
