Municipal Law

Pennsylvania Municipal Law Attorneys

Municipal law is much more than advising zoning boards, representing school districts, and advocating for development authorities. It's about working with local governments to create the best communities for their citizenry. It's also about helping individuals and businesses develop their interests while meeting their tax, environmental and legal obligations.

Local governments in eastern Pennsylvania often look to the law firm of Hamburg, Rubin, Mullin, Maxwell & Lupin to help them stay on top of the latest statutes and pending legislations. Our attorneys represent the movers and shakers in municipalities, zoning hearing boards, municipal authorities (sewer and water), school districts, and industrial development authorities. Our law firm serves as the solicitor for townships and a number of water and sewer districts in Montgomery County. Our attorneys have a statewide reputation for our expertise in municipal law and related areas of law such as land use and environmental law. We teach municipal law to other attorneys around the state. We are also asked to provide advisory opinions to legislators who want to change the law. We lecture to municipal officers, elected officials, and staff employees concerning the very specific laws that govern how they conduct themselves.

Almost every land-use or business venture requires some interaction with municipal or state government. Our knowledge and experience with municipal law enables us to be effective advocates for individuals and businesses, whom we represent:

• In hearings before the Public Utility Commission
• In hearings before local planning and township boards in matters such as zoning and variances
• In eminent domain and condemnation matters
