| We represented a couple who bought a Minneapolis home with plans to convert the property into a rental four-plex. After our client got the demolition permit and tore down the house, they were denied a building permit — and then told by the city (too late) not to demolish the original structure! Our firm has represented many clients who have gotten the run-around, mixed messages or arbitrary denials from governing bodies. |
