Land Use & Zoning

Land Use and Zoning

Enjoy a level of convenience unequaled by other settlement practices.

Reager & Adler’s land use attorneys have been advising and guiding private landowners, developers, lenders, and prospective purchasers when it comes to zoning law and land use for over 30 years. From securing the necessary federal, state, and local government approvals for projects to appeals through the court systems, our land use and zoning attorneys are experienced litigators with a wide range of successful appearances before local zoning boards, state administrative agencies and appeal boards as well as county courts throughout the Commonwealth and the Pennsylvania appellate courts.

We aid both developers and individuals in:

  • Securing zoning permits, variances, special exceptions, and conditional uses
  • Identifying whether the land use or lot is non-conforming
  • Interpreting a zoning officer’s determination
  • Representing our clients before zoning hearing boards, planning commissions, townships, boroughs, state and federal agencies, and state and federal courts
  • Assisting with subdividing or developing land

Focused on expertly assisting our clients with all phases of commercial and residential development (specifically as the development relates to zoning and subdivision issues), our land attorneys and zoning lawyers also prepare and review easements, provide advice as to boundary disputes, and have expertise in public and private road matters. Our long-standing experience and familiarity with officials and municipalities is a real asset to clients.
