UTR attorneys’ municipal law experience has included representation of twelve Rhode Island cities and towns on all sides of the political aisle.
We have successfully assisted municipalities navigate issues that include labor contract negotiations and grievances; open meeting laws and public records requests; tax revaluations and appeals; code violations and other vital municipal issues. We frequently assist clients with negotiating-reviewing-drafting easements or conveyances of property, and issuance and transfer of liquor, victualing and other licenses.
We can represent you or your business if you have an issue with your local government.
