Enforcing Rights

Not all matters go smoothly in the complex world of development and land use. Discrimination may occur in planning approval processes and decision-making. Community opposition to protected housing rights may also raise legal challenges. The Law Office of Kim Savage provides clients legal representation when necessary to enforce or protect important rights through appeals, administrative complaints and other venues.
