Bercow Radell Fernandez Larkin & Tapanes PLLC

Bercow Radell Fernandez Larkin & Tapanes is a boutique law firm based in South Florida with a focus on land use, zoning, and environmental matters. Our attorneys are knowledgeable in regulations concerning real property, land development, construction permitting, and business licensing. We serve international, domestic, and local landowners, developers, institutions, investors, and businesses seeking approvals from government boards and agencies at various levels, including local, state, and federal.

We handle complex and politically sensitive legislative and quasi-judicial matters, guiding clients from initial due diligence to construction. This includes work on developments of regional impact, amendments to local government comprehensive plans, vested rights, rezonings, site planning, subdivision, and permitting, as well as issues related to enforcement, ad valorem, historic preservation, and archaeological matters.

Our firm members regularly appear before numerous boards and committees in the region, such as Miami-Dade County's Board of County Commissioners, Planning Advisory Board, Community Councils/Zoning Appeals Board, Development Impact Committee, and others. We also appear before boards in Miami Beach, Miami, and other municipalities across South Florida, including Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Additionally, we often present before the South Florida Regional Planning Council.

Our team is known for a strong reputation among community and business leaders, built through a long-standing commitment to integrity, legal acumen, community engagement, industry involvement, and pro bono work.
