Did you know our office is located in the Central Gloucester Historic District?

If you live nearby, you know the rules and regulations for projects in a historic district can be intense. According to the Massachusetts General Laws, the purpose of these rules is to prevent “developments incongruous to the historic aspects or the architectural characteristics of the surroundings and of the historic district.”

What’s your favorite historical building in Gloucester? Let us know in the comments!

Spring cleaning isn’t just for closets and garages — it’s a good time to take a look at your estate planning documents too.

If you’ve had changes in your life over the past few years — marriage, divorce, children, new property, a move, or even a shift in your priorities — your plan may not reflect your current reality.

Give us a call to schedule a consultation and get your documents up to date.

We’re pleased to share a recent litigation win: the Massachusetts Land Court has entered judgment for our client, resolving a long‑running property dispute and confirming ownership rights based on adverse possession. 🏡

Here’s the story:

Our client and their family had used and cared for a portion of their yard openly since 1969—mowing it, landscaping it, and treating it as their own. When their new neighbor hired a surveyor in 2023 and claimed the land belonged to them, a dispute followed. We successfully argued that decades of open and continuous use satisfied Massachusetts law, and the Court agreed our client is the legal owner of the disputed land. ⚖️

It’s true! M.G.L. c. 93, § 114 states that “The fact or suspicion that real property may be or is psychologically impacted shall not be deemed to be a material fact required to be disclosed in a real estate transaction.” The law goes on to clarify that one of these “psychologically impacting” factors is “that the real property has been the site of an alleged parapsychological or supernatural phenomenon.”

Sellers and agents are, however, required to be honest about the home’s haunted history if you ask about it. So make sure you inquire... if you dare!

We’re proud to share that our office successfully secured our client relief from the Zoning Board of Appeals and a special permit from the City Council for a great new housing project. This zoning relief allows our client to expand an existing building into a six‑unit multifamily residence, adding new housing (including an affordable unit). 🏡

Permitting can be difficult; local experience helps! Give us a call to book a consultation. 📞

General rule of thumb: any work within 100' of the edge of a wetland or 200' of a river bank should be run past the Conservation Department (or your attorney) before starting.
