Land Use & Zoning Law
Navigating Regulations for Your Property or Project
Guiding You Through Zoning Laws and Land Development
Legal Support for Homeowners, Businesses, and Developers
Whether you’re a developer planning new construction, a homeowner looking to add on to your house, or a business owner facing zoning restrictions, Naumann & Associates provides the guidance needed to move projects forward. Our attorneys understand the municipal codes and planning processes in Elk Grove Village and across the northwest Chicago suburbs, giving you a trusted partner in navigating complex requirements.
Zoning Approvals, Variances, and Permits
Representing You Before Local Boards and Commissions
Zoning issues often require more than paperwork—they involve hearings, petitions, and negotiation with municipalities. We help clients apply for and secure variances, special use permits, or rezoning approvals. Our team prepares the applications, attends planning commission meetings, and advocates before zoning boards and city councils throughout Cook County and surrounding areas. With our representation, you won’t face these critical steps alone.
Land Development and Subdivision Counsel
Supporting Projects from Planning to Approval
Large-scale developments bring unique challenges, from subdivision approval to environmental or traffic impact reviews. We advise on development agreements and guide clients through the steps required by city planning departments. Even as a boutique firm, our experience and connections allow us to support developers pursuing projects in Elk Grove Village, Naperville, and other fast-growing suburban communities.
Resolving Land Use Disputes
Advocacy When Projects Face Challenges
Sometimes projects are delayed or denied due to opposition from neighbors, restrictive ordinances, or municipal decisions. When this happens, Naumann & Associates is ready to step in. Our attorneys represent clients in appeals, hearings, and, when necessary, litigation. With our civil litigation experience, we can advocate effectively to protect your investment and ensure your project has a fair chance to move forward.
Local Insight: Regulations in Chicagoland Suburbs
Knowledge of Unique Ordinances and Local Requirements
Every community has its own zoning rules and enforcement practices. In Arlington Heights, restrictions may affect signage; in Naperville, developments may require detailed traffic studies; in Chicago neighborhoods like Edison Park, historic district requirements may come into play. Our local experience gives us an edge in identifying potential roadblocks and preparing strategies to address them before they delay your project.
