When our development project in Coconut Grove faced a significant zoning hurdle, we were referred to Iris Escarrá at Greenberg Traurig. From our initial consultation, her command of Miami's intricate land use regulations was immediately apparent. She didn't just recite the code; she explained the strategic landscape, including the perspectives of various municipal boards and community stakeholders. Her recognition in Land Use and Zoning Law is clearly well-earned. Iris meticulously prepared our variance application, anticipating every potential question and objection. Her professionalism during meetings with city planners was exceptional—she was both respectful and unwaveringly persuasive, turning a potentially adversarial process into a collaborative one. The approval we received was crucial for the project's viability, and it was achieved efficiently, saving us considerable time and resources. Her real estate law expertise also proved essential in aligning the zoning outcome with our broader transactional timeline. Iris is more than a brilliant attorney; she is a strategic partner who genuinely invests in her clients' success. I cannot recommend her highly enough for any complex land use or real estate matter in South Florida.
