At Silverman, Tokarsky & Forman, L.L.C, our attorneys understand the local municipal laws and are prepared to advocate for your right to build.

Ensuring Compliance With Local Codes

Before you pick up the hammer or hire a contractor, it’s best to secure approval from your township. If you are unsure about what the local ordinances might mean for your building project, talk to one of our lawyers.

Reach out if you have concerns regarding the following and more:

  • Zoning issues that interfere with your ability to use your property or in some way interfere with your ability to conduct business

Our attorneys have the added advantage of previously working as solicitors, so we know what it takes to successfully petition for a variance in the state of Pennsylvania. We understand how unique everyone’s case or situation may be and how the laws change from city to city, so we work to ensure that our representation is tailored to your needs.
