I provide experienced advice and counsel on all phases of land use and commercial transaction issues for multi-state corporate entities engaged in diverse development projects. I advise on zoning, subdivision, site approval, and environmental impacts, work closely with architects, engineers and project managers in developing project specifications, and assist clients in preparing applications, impact statements and related materials necessary for obtaining the requisite permits and approvals. I appear regularly on behalf of my clients before the full range of state and local regulatory bodies, and will not hesitate to appeal decisions to the state Supreme Court when necessary. My passion for and interest in food, grounded in my former experience as a restaurateur locally sourcing long before it was trendy, informs my work with farmers and food producers on a wide range of issues, from leasing, buying, and selling land to financing and contracts.
