Land Use, Environmental,
And Zoning Attorneys

If you are concerned about a proposed development project and you think you need a good lawyer, then you've come to the right place? 

First of all, far too many people rush out to hire a lawyer before they know whether they really need one and, if they do, what expertise the attorney should have.  We can help you avoid this very expensive mistake.  Just give us a call at 1-800-773-4571 or e-mail us at Help@ceds.org for a free initial consultation. 

We'll review the facts in your case and where the project stands in the permitting process.  With this information we can frequently determine if the time has come to hire a lawyer.  If it has then we can link you up with one of the 130 attorneys in our nationwide network.  All of these attorneys have a good reputation for helping citizens win zoning, land use, and environmental cases. 

Sometimes we need to gain a more thorough understanding of a case to identify the quickest, least expensive way of resolving our client's concerns.  When this situation arises we recommend a CEDS Initial Strategy Analysis. 

For as little as a few hundred dollars we can research the facts in your case, look at the applicable laws, and talk with regulatory officials to see if we can resolve your concerns without going to the expense of engaging a lawyer.  Our clients presently are winning 75% of their cases and more than half of these victories are achieved without legal action.  For further information click on the following title:

CEDS Initial Strategy Analysis

Our clients win 75% of the time, which is a far greater success rate than citizens usually experience.  Our success rate is so unusually high because of the unique approach we take to waging land use and zoning battles. Our approach is not only more successful, but also far less expensive compared to that employed by many attorneys outside our network.  The CEDS approach is detailed in our free, 280-page book: How To Win Land Development Issues.
