Connell Foley LLP has deepened its bench of real estate attorneys in New Jersey with the addition of Rebecca Maioriello as an associate.
According to the Roseland-based firm, Maioriello joins its team with extensive experience representing municipalities as redevelopment counsel. She has also helped private entities win zoning and planning board approvals for land use and development proposals and is well practiced in negotiating and drafting redevelopment agreements.
“Rebecca’s rich real estate background will help us to continue the great work we’re doing in Newark, where we’ve been busy simultaneously revitalizing the city and helping stakeholders to meet their investment goals,” said Elnardo Webster, who joined Connell Foley’s real estate group last year as a Newark-based partner. “We’re excited to have another talented lawyer on the team.”
According to her bio, Maioriello has appeared before municipal planning boards and governing bodies about the designation of properties as areas in need of redevelopment, having drafted local redevelopment legislation in accordance with the Municipal Land Use Law. She is also an accomplished litigator who has represented clients in condemnation litigation and landlord/tenant disputes, as well as in employment and personal injury actions.
Maioriello, who earned her law degree from Seton Hall University School of Law, is admitted to practice in New Jersey.
