For the second consecutive year, Shareholder Diane De Felice, a member of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck’s Los Angeles office in the Natural Resources Department, has been recognized by Pasadena Magazine on its Top Attorneys list. She was recognized in the Land Use and Zoning Law category. In its annual guide, the publication surveys local lawyers to “tell us who among them they thought were the best at what they do.”
De Felice advises developers, large landowners, investors, public agencies and other private sector entities on the complexities of land use, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Subdivision Map Act. De Felice applies her comprehensive knowledge of administrative processes to streamline complicated land use, planning and environmental approvals to enable clients projects to break ground as early as possible. Examples of recent work include entitlements and litigation related to housing development, including affordable and transitional housing to address homelessness, large industrial projects and high-profile infrastructure projects, including large-scale water storage projects.
