Municipal Law

In the Municipal Law area, we have represented local governments throughout Michigan, including counties, cities, villages, and townships. From drafting ordinances to defending takings claims or participating in complex multi-party litigation, our firm is fully equipped to provide assistance and guidance to municipalities in the areas of real property, environmental protection and regulation, land use, zoning, access to government issues, and general municipal law.

In addition, municipalities are often eager to facilitate the cleanup of contaminated properties within their jurisdiction — often called brownfields — to increase their tax base and further their economic development. Our firm has the expertise to select the most effective tools to facilitate financing, limit liability, and streamline the development process in partnership with public and private development interests.
