Professional Biography

Brian has more than 20 years of project development experience before permit-granting authorities and in court.

Permitting

Brian's real estate development and land use and zoning law experience focuses on the representation of builders, developers, and property owners seeking all types of permits and approvals — special permits, site plan approvals, variances, and comprehensive permits — before dozens of boards throughout Massachusetts. His environmental practice focuses on permitting matters before local boards and state agencies on wetlands and Title V matters. Representative project approvals include residential subdivisions, affordable housing projects, retail stores, shopping centers, restaurants, telecommunications towers and assisted living facilities. In addition to property owners and developers, his clients include educational and religious nonprofit institutions and project abutters and neighborhood associations. He also has experience serving as special counsel to boards.

Litigation

When necessary, Brian pursues project approvals in trial courts — Massachusetts Land, Superior or U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts — and appellate courts — Massachusetts Appeals Court, Supreme Judicial Court, and U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals. His litigation experience includes all types of real estate disputes including adverse possession, quieting title, registration, breach of contract, specific performance, nuisance, and obtaining injunctive or declaratory relief. Representative cases include regulatory takings, disputed transactional documentation, determinations of the validity of zoning amendments or deed restrictions, and challenges to or defense of easements, rights of way, or other interests in land.

Brian co-chairs the firm's Infrastructure & Real Estate group.
