Real estate development lawyers are legal professionals who specialize in the legal aspects of real estate development, including zoning laws and land use regulations. They help developers navigate the complex legal landscape and ensure that their projects comply with all applicable laws.
Zoning laws are regulations that govern the use of land in a particular area. They determine what types of buildings and activities are permitted in different zones. Land use regulations are similar to zoning laws, but they also cover other aspects of land use, such as environmental protection and historic preservation.
