Stuart M. Lederman, a partner in Riker Danzig’s Litigation and Governmental Affairs departments, was quoted in the June 18th issue of the Star-Ledger regarding the NJ Supreme Court’s recent eminent domain decision. Mr. Lederman said that the Gallenthin ruling “is certain to make redevelopment more expensive for towns by requiring them to pay planners more, and it may also slow the process.”
Mr. Lederman concentrates his practice in commercial litigation, government affairs, real estate and construction law. A recipient of the Moffet Henderson Litigation Award, he is also a former instructor with the Emory University School of Law Trial Techniques Program. Lederman frequently lectures to teachers and architects on the law.
