Our Violations Division does more than identify pending violations and penalties. We examine the underlying issues and create a strategy to clear up the problems. Because we have an experienced team that specializes in violations, we understand how to resolve and pay—or sometimes dismiss—various types of violations.

Every day, our team sends a representative to the Environmental Control Board (ECB), the Department of Buildings (DOB), and the Fire Department of New York City (FDNY). Close relationships, coupled with intimate knowledge of the violations process, allow us to advise clients on timelines and payment options. We know which liens and penalties can be waived or reduced and which violations require persistent follow-up. As with our Approvals & Permits and our Sign-Offs , Metropolis clients benefit from the speediest, most cost-effective route to resolve their building issues.
