Our Virginia clients trust our firm, Roth Jackson, when they come to us with land use and commercial real estate concerns. Assisting clients throughout the Commonwealth, our attorneys provide representation and counsel for commercial real estate projects of all kinds, including urban, industrial, residential, commercial and mixed use, as well as historic redevelopment projects. They obtain land use approvals from federal, state, and local entities that are critical to successfully developing properties. Our attorneys’ rapport with these governmental agencies enables them to overcome any obstacles encountered during a project, including concerns with historic preservation and environmental regulations.
The extent of our land use practice allows us to continually establish new and maintain existing relationships with local governing officials and staff, as well as relevant consultants, developers and civic and community groups. Our lawyers serve as members and leaders of multiple industry associations, business organizations and political committees to expand the support network available to clients. These associations with decision-makers can be critical to successfully and effectively navigating land use concerns.
A Proven Track Record In Finding Solutions To The Most Complicated Land Use Problems
Our firm’s lawyers have a proven track record in handling high-profile, complicated zoning, and land use cases, with particular experience in mixed-use developments. We are often called upon to assist clients in negotiating tax credits, tax incentives and similar development agreements for business relocations, new construction, historic and other redevelopment projects and improvements related to real estate development.
We routinely advise clients on the legal aspects of real estate leasing, acquisitions and sales, as well as complex real estate financing. Typical transactions include the acquisition, sale, leasing and financing of shopping centers, commercial office buildings, warehouse and industrial facilities, mixed-use projects and multifamily housing.
Beyond typical land use and zoning cases, our land use team is intimately involved in real estate transactions, such as the purchase or sale of businesses and real property, as well as in leasing and financing transactions. Their experience enables us to identify land use issues at an early stage in transactions to help protect their clients from unanticipated costs and risks.
Our land use attorneys also provide representation to property owners in negotiating with government entities exercising their power of eminent domain. We focus on attempting to obtain adequate compensation and ensuring the condemnation does not result in the subject property becoming less valuable or more difficult to develop.
