Spiegelman Law Group
Detail. Diligence. Integrity.
Property Rights
John Adams once said "property must be secured or liberty cannot exist." Here at Spiegelman Law we are zealous champions of this principle. Whether you are fighting for a use permit or the government's seizure of your childhood home, our team will fight tooth and nail to vouchsafe each and every one of your and your property's legal and constitutional rights.
Land Use Law
Our firm is dedicated to helping clients slice through the layers of local, state, and federal red tape that so often impede housing growth across the country. Whether you are a large developer or a modest rental owner, our team will work tirelessly to shepherd you through every step of the zoning, permitting, and code-compliance processes.
Compliance
Our firm always ensures that our clients are in clear and consistent compliance with all applicable rules and regulations. From commercial complexes to single-family homes, Spiegelman Law regularly navigates our clients through the maze of federal, state, and local laws to which their properties are subject.
