For those properties that cannot be acquired through voluntary negotiation, Bond works to secure the necessary land or rights through eminent domain. The attorneys who handle these proceedings ensure the process meets all the requirements of the EDPL, including compliance with the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA).
The attorneys in our practice also have specific experience advising clients that receive federal funds with respect to the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Act, and negotiating among affected parties to resolve issues prior to litigation whenever possible.
