Zoning
and
land
use
issues
play
a
significant
role
in
the
establishment
and
expansion
of
business
operations
in
Puerto
Rico.
Knowing
the
intricacies
of
zoning
and
permitting
provisions
is
crucial
for
projects,
regardless
of
their
type
or
magnitude.
Our
Land
Use
practice
group
has
comprehensive
knowledge
of
state
and
municipal
zoning
and
planning
laws
and
regulations
that
enables
us
to
provide
legal
advice
to
clients
in
a
wide
range
of
zoning,
land
use,
and
entitlement
matters.
Some
of
the
matters
in
which
we
provide
clients
with
this
type
of
service
include
zoning
and
site
location
approvals,
public
hearings,
procurement
of
permits
and
endorsements,
and
litigation.
As
part
of
this
process,
we
assist
our
clients
in
the
development
of
effective
legal
strategies
by
working
in
close
coordination
with
them
and
their
technical
consultants
in
the
planning,
development,
and
permitting
phases
of
a
project.
This
collaborative
effort,
coupled
with
the
positive
relationships
we
have
with
governmental
entities
helps
us
maximize
the
streamlining
of
the
associated
administrative
processes,
and
helps
to
anticipate
and
avoid
potential
challenges.
Our
practice
also
involves
providing
advice
to
clients
on
new
developments
on
land
use
plans,
laws
and
regulations,
and
assisting
or
representing
them
in
the
enactment
of
relevant
laws
and
the
adoption
of
ensuing
regulation.
