Practice Fields
Planning Procedures Support (Advancing Zoning Plans) - Our firm specializes in guiding planning processes to enhance property value and advance projects of all types and scales, including complex urban renewal plans. We assist in navigating the intricate zoning plan approval process, from the initial stages to final approval by planning authorities. This includes drafting and reviewing planning documents, handling objections, representing clients before local, regional, and national planning committees, and litigating in all judicial instances. As part of land value enhancement procedures, we also handle sales and combination transactions to facilitate property value realization.
Representation of Objectors – Private Individuals and Resident Groups - The right to object to plans, zoning relaxations, and deviations is an opportunity for the public to express its stance on deposited plans and permit requests that deviate from approved zoning. Exercising this right can influence planning decisions, the environment, quality of life, and property values. Our firm has extensive experience managing objections, representing both individuals and resident groups opposing large-scale projects that significantly impact their surroundings. We handle objections to comprehensive master plans, national and regional infrastructure projects—such as metro system plans—as well as smaller-scale zoning changes.
Legal Assistance in Building Permits, Zoning Relaxations, and Deviations – For Both Applicants and Objectors - Our firm provides comprehensive legal support for the licensing process, from obtaining initial information from local planning committees to consulting in the permit applications, issuing legal opinions, and representing clients in objections and appeals. We advocate before zoning appeal committees, and other relevant planning institutions, as well as administrative petitions. Additionally, we handle criminal and administrative proceedings related to unauthorized construction or land use.
Real Estate Transactions, Urban Renewal, and TAMA 38 - We represent numerous clients in real estate transactions and urban renewal projects, including TAMA 38 and evacuation-reconstruction (Pinui-Binui). Our firm provides both contractual legal support and guidance through the planning and licensing stages. We assist in all project phases—from securing landowner consent and representing clients in planning institutions to obtain approvals and executing projects. Our firm also offers close support to tenants and neighborhood representatives initiating urban renewal projects, helping them find developers, negotiate agreements, and oversee the process until they receive their new apartments.
Betterment Levies - Handling betterment levies requires both legal and appraisal expertise. The legal aspect is crucial from the early stages of drafting the plan or zoning relaxation that later triggers the levy. Our firm has extensive experience managing complex betterment levy cases, representing both private taxpayers and developers in proceedings before appraisers, appeal committees, and courts. We advise on the optimal legal course (appraisal or appeal), clarify exemption clauses, and collaborate with real estate appraisers in all legal proceedings. We handle numerous preservation cases, betterment levies for Tel Aviv zoning plans, and complex levy issues in rental housing and affordable housing projects.
Representation in Compensation Claims for Expropriation and Property Devaluation - Compensation claims for property devaluation due to an approved harmful plan or expropriation require both legal and appraisal expertise. The firm represents land and property owners in compensation claims against NTA (Metropolitan Mass Transit System) for expropriations and depreciation in value related to the Metro plans, as well as claims concerning the Tel Aviv preservation plan and other national infrastructure projects. It also represents companies in defending against compensation claims filed against them.
