Bought a Home With a Mother-Daughter?

  • We do these. We file the permits and plans.
  • Rules vary by town. Need a variance? We can refer you to a zoning/land-use attorney.

Have a Court Date? Ask About Our Engagement Letter.

  • We provide an engagement letter you can give the town as proof that you are working to fix the violation.
  • We don't go to court.

Legal questions? Ask the court or your attorney.

Violation Questions

I got a violation notice. What should I do first?

Don't ignore it. Send us a photo of the notice with your name and phone number, or call/text 516-399-0139. We'll explain what's needed to cure it.

Will you go to court for me?

No, we don't go to court. Once you hire us, we provide an engagement letter you can give the town as proof that you are working to fix the violation. For legal questions, talk to the court or your attorney.

How long does it take to cure a violation?

Violation jobs typically take 4–8 weeks. It varies by town and scope, and assumes no extra work or construction needs to be done and the building department accepts the permit application.

Is the process different in a village or city?

It's similar everywhere in Nassau County.

Do I need a survey or plans?

Usually, yes. Towns typically want a current survey, and many violations need drawings of what was built. We order the survey for you with no markup.

What do you do for a mother-daughter permit?

We pull your certificate of occupancy and permit history, explain your town's rules, and file the permits and plans. Rules vary by town. We don't give legal advice.

Can my illegal basement apartment be legalized?

It depends on your town's zoning rules. We'll review your property records in a free consultation. If it needs a variance, we'll refer you to a zoning/land-use attorney.
