Do I need an attorney to represent me on a residential variance application?
Zoning Boards of Appeals are quasi judicial local government agencies which are governed by State statutes and decisional law. Real estate developers and residential homeowners alike can save a great deal of time and money by consulting legal counsel before filing an application. A good zoning attorney can help determine what permits are necessary, streamline the process, build a strong record and increase the likelihood of success.
