New Urban Communities Disputes

The Idea

The new cities are managed by the New Urban Communities Authority under Law No. 59 of 1979 and its regulations, and its decisions on allocation, withdrawal and licensing are administrative decisions with specific grievance and appeal routes and deadlines. We review the terms booklet, the allocation contract and the correspondence, and pursue a grievance or an appeal before the administrative courts.

What We Do

• Grievances and appeals against land withdrawal and cancellation of allocation.
• Requests to extend execution deadlines.
• Licensing disputes, building violations and their regularization.
• Transfer of ownership and assignment of land and units.
• Disputes over installments, fees and late-payment penalties.
• Representation before the city agencies, the Authority and the State Council courts.

How We Work with You

We begin with a consultation, in person or remotely, followed by a written opinion on your position, then a written fee agreement defining the scope, and periodic written reports as the file progresses. See the full engagement steps.
