Experience

Neal B. Glick is a Partner at Donovan Hatem LLP, serving as Chair of the Corporate Law and Real Estate Groups. He has extensive experience in commercial and environmental real estate law.

Neal's commercial real estate practice includes transactions, commercial lending and loan servicing as well as zoning, subdivision, historic preservation and other land use matters. He has represented local and national lenders on closings of construction loans ranging from major downtown office buildings to suburban retail facilities. His work for a national loan servicer and commercial lenders involves easements, takings and foreclosures. He has successfully advised the owners of land on which a 196-lot residential subdivision is being developed. Neal represents owners and buyers in connection with the purchase and sale of commercial properties, including financial district buildings and residential complexes. Neal also regularly advises individuals and community groups with respect to development issues involving land use and related environmental concerns, including Chapter 40B projects. His real estate lending and loan servicing practice has led to work in the banking area, such as advising a subsidiary of a Fortune 100 company on regulatory requirements in connection with the establishment of a federally-chartered savings bank in Massachusetts, and disclosure requirements for internet banking programs.

Neal represents a wide range of clients in environmental matters related to land use. On behalf of a major commercial land owner, he brought and settled the most significant environmental dispute dealing with the Central Artery Project. The case involved a host of environmental issues and resulted in the preservation of all of the client's property and development rights. He also wrote legislation creating a citizen advisory corporation and then represented it during the design and building of the largest waterfront park in the Northeast. In connection with the multi-billion dollar Logan Airport expansion project, Neal has helped create historic environmental mitigation agreements between Massport and local community groups. He has secured environmental permits for the developer of a quarter-of-a-billion dollar solid waste recycling and power generation facility, advised a major utility on the remediation of contaminated property, and represented several major construction lenders on the environmental permitting aspects of downtown Boston and suburban office and residential projects. Neal represented the City of Chelsea in connection with its opposition to the construction of Runway 14/32 at Logan Airport.

Prior to joining Donovan Hatem LLP, Neal founded Glick and Associates P.C. He also served in Washington in the Office of General Counsel in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, practiced as a partner in the Real Estate Department of the Boston office of Brown, Rudnick, Freed & Gesmer, where he created and chaired the Environmental Practice Group, and was the managing partner of the Boston office of Tillinghast Licht & Semonoff.
