Eminent Domain and Condemnation
When the government exercises its power of eminent domain, property owners often feel powerless. Sammartino Law Group levels the playing field. The firm’s primary practice areas include:
- Condemnation Defense: Representing landowners in partial or total takings to maximize the value of the compensation received.
- Inverse Condemnation: Helping clients seek damages when government action has reduced the value of their property without formal taking.
- Zoning and Land Use: Assisting developers and owners with rezoning applications, variances, and conditional use permits to unlock the potential of their land.
- Development Agreements: Negotiating terms with municipalities for large-scale real estate projects.
A Client-First Philosophy
Carl Sammartino founded the firm on the belief that every property owner deserves a fierce advocate. He handles each case personally, avoiding the bureaucracy of larger firms where clients are often passed off to associates. His approach is detailed and strategic, often involving collaboration with appraisers, engineers, and land planners to build a compelling case. The firm is known for its high ethical standards and has received an AV Preeminent peer review rating, reflecting the highest level of professional excellence. 🏗️
