Real Estate and Land Use Group

Hatch & Parent's Real Estate and Land Use Group has successfully represented our clients in matters involving real estate transactions, land development, easement and title issues, environmental regulation, zoning, permitting, construction oversight, and formulation of land use policy for more than 35 years.

Our attorneys understand the legal and business considerations inherent in the acquisition, use and development of property for residential, commercial, industrial, recreational or agricultural purposes. With our considerable experience handling real estate and land use matters throughout California, we know how to cut through red tape and push projects through narrow doors. When necessary, we have the resources and expertise to protect our clients' property and contractual rights in court. In cases where counsel in other areas of the law is needed, we work closely with attorneys from other practice groups within the firm.

Local governments are known for imposing complex and, in some cases, contradictory laws and ordinances governing land ownership, land development and regulation of land use. The attorneys in Hatch & Parent's Real Estate and Land Use Group take pride in our ability to deliver favorable results for our individual, corporate and governmental clients in one of the most rigorous regulatory jurisdictions in the country.

If you are acquiring, or if you own, use, and develop real property for residential, commercial, recreational, industrial or agricultural purposes, have questions about development rights, easement and title issues, or need guidance through the maze of environmental regulations, zoning, and permitting requirements imposed by federal, state and local governmental agencies, you will benefit by putting Hatch & Parent's experience to work for you.
