Jeffrey D. Forchelli featured in listing of “Who’s Who in Commercial & Residential Real Estate Law”
LIBN “Who’s Who in Commercial & Residential Real Estate Law”, 12/21/07

Mineola, December 21, 2007 — Managing Partner Jeffrey D. Forchelli is featured in the Long Island Business News’ listing of "Who's Who in Commercial & Residential Real Estate Law."

In the article, Mr. Forchelli, suggests that when purchasing residential or commercial real estate, “potential buyers pay close attention to title issues, as well as any pre-existing land use approvals that may ultimately affect the use of the property.”

He cited a recent matter where a client came to him unaware of zoning restrictions that were imposed decades ago on property that he recently purchased.

“Sometime in the 1960’s, a municipal Planning Board approved the subdivision of the property, but the restrictions imposed at the time of approval were never recorded in the County Clerk’s Office,” he said. “Eventually, when the client attempted to develop his property, he found that he was still bound by a pre-existing restriction that he was unaware of.”

Mr. Forchelli founded the law firm of Forchelli, Curto, Deegan, Schwartz, Mineo, Cohn & Terrana, LLP in 1976 and has served as its Managing Partner ever since. His extensive personal practice concentrates on complex real estate and land use matters, including litigation and tax certiorari for major real estate developers and national corporations. He has served as Counsel to the New York State Assembly, and served on the Legal Advisory Board and on the Board of Directors of Security Title and Guaranty Company. Mr. Forchelli was selected for inclusion in Who's Who in American Law (8th Edition) and is consistently included in the "Who's Who in Law" listing by Long Island Business News.
