Municipal Law

We understand and advise clients on the powers and liabilities of municipal corporations and state and local governments. Laws that affect individuals, families, business, corporations, and partnerships at the local level often receive the least amount of public attention. This makes changes to them easier to violate. The municipal law lawyers at Tunnell & Raysor help clients stay abreast of significant changes in state and local laws in Delaware and provide them with the information they need to be a part of the process through which changes in policy become law. Areas of practice include:

• Administrative law
• Appeals from agency decisions
• Enforcement actions
• Licensing matters
• Health and safety issues
• Insurance
• Public utilities
• Governmental contracts
• Taxation issues
• Land use and zoning issues
• Municipal tort claims
