The Land Use Team at Jacobowitz & Gubits, LLP, is at the forefront of the growth in the Hudson Valley through its representation of applicants seeking governmental approvals for industrial, office, retail, and residential development projects.
J&G's land use attorneys have an accumulation of over 100 years of experience representing applicants before planning boards, zoning boards of appeals, village and town boards, city and common councils, as well as other local, state and federal agencies. This experience allows J&G to provide development clients with knowledge of local conditions and familiarity with the region's decision makers. We seek to use our experience and credibility to facilitate land use approvals.
Our Land Use Team has provided professional guidance and representation on a wide variety of land use matters over the years in the Hudson Valley, and has the experience and ability to coordinate and lead your entire project team through the approval process or to work as one member of that team under the direction of your project manager. Our goal is to provide clients with legal advice and services that result in approval of their projects in the shortest time possible with reasonable conditions on terms that protect economic viability and profitability while maintaining a sensitivity to the interests of the community and the environment. (Please see the Environmental Law section below.)
