Toronto Zoning & Land Use Lawyers

Land use planning involves the management of land and resources in Ontario. It affects a variety of matters such as where homes and subdivisions will be built, where highways, roads and other essential services will be placed, where parks and other green spaces will be maintained, where schools will be located, and so on.

Since land use planning balances the interests of property owners with the broader interests of the community at large, it often results in legal disputes requiring guidance and representation from lawyers who are knowledgeable in these specific matters.

At Baker & Company, our real estate lawyers have been advising clients in respect of zoning and land use matters for more than 30 years. We regularly represent residential, commercial, industrial and institutional property developers, landowners, builders, and municipalities.
