The Importance of Law Specializations

In this article published by New Jersey Business Magazine, Andrew Kohut of Wells Law, alongside other NJ attorneys, weigh in on the value of experience and expertise in specific areas of the law.

“There’s not much vacant, developable land in New Jersey, yet there is a need for housing,” comments Andrew S. Kohut, partner at Wells, Jaworski, and Liebman, LLP, in Paramus. “This leaves an opportunity for a great deal of redevelopment, which is not always an easy task to accomplish. Zoning laws and other regulations, issues with tax incentives, and appeals can be very complex.” According to Kohut, proposing new development can be like walking on a tightrope.

“The most important aspect to achieve successful land use approvals, such as a redevelopment project, is to have a mutually beneficial working relationship between the municipality and the developer in order to create a vision through a redevelopment plan, with experienced legal counsel who can advise. All of this takes time along with a great deal of knowledge.”
