Competent handling of our commercial property zoning issue

Brian Shemesh at Giordano Halleran was recommended for his land use and zoning recognition. He successfully navigated our variance application for a small retail expansion in Red Bank. His knowledge of local ordinances was evident. However, communication was sometimes delayed, requiring follow-up on our part, and the process felt more transactional than collaborative. While the outcome was positive, managing expectations on timelines could be improved. For straightforward corporate or real estate matters where expertise is the primary need, his recognized skills are a definite asset. For clients desiring high-touch communication, be prepared to be proactive.
