Land ownership, land development, and regulation of land use are fundamental and dynamic forces in contemporary California. As the state's economy prospers and its population and agricultural production grow, laws and regulations governing the use of our limited land and environmental resources become increasingly complex. For more than 50 years, we have been actively involved in all forms of real estate transactions, environmental regulation, zoning, permitting, land development, and formulation of land use policy in Southern and Central California.

Our firm's attorneys and land use professionals are specialists. We understand the business side of real estate and the laws governing real estate and land use. We formulate creative solutions to our clients' problems. We appreciate that, for governmental agencies and individuals, delay and the extra cost it entails must be avoided. Whether we draft construction agreements or project disposition documents, negotiate and document real property transfers or leases, ensure compliance with environmental laws or obtain entitlements and project financing, our goal is to cut through red tape and add value during every step of the process.

Phillips Law Partners works with a team of experts--your experts. We expect and embrace challenges, and we have obtained favorable results for individual, corporate and governmental clients in the most rigorous regulatory jurisdictions in the nation. Effective planning, experience, negotiation and presentation are critical to our approach. When necessary, we have turned to the courts with considerable success to preserve our clients' property and contractual rights.

If you are acquiring, or if you own, use, or develop real property for residential, commercial, recreational or agricultural purposes, if you have easement or title issues, or need guidance through the maze of environmental regulations, zoning, and permitting requirements imposed by federal, state and local governmental agencies, you may wish to put Phillips Law Partners' experience to work for you. We encourage you to ask our clients about the quality of our legal services and would be pleased to discuss with you the real estate, land use, and environmental issues relevant to your property.
