Another great result achieved by the CMM team! CMM’s Environmental & Land Use practice group, under the leadership of Frederick Eisenbud, was able to persuade the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to permit our client to keep the deck and dock he built without a tidal wetlands permit at his home in place – despite the fact that had DEC demanded its removal for several years before CMM was retained. Excellent work by our team using science-based, persuasive arguments to achieve a successful outcome for our client.

Important information for Long Island employers: does your business know the difference between employees and independent contractors? The distinction between the two can be murky, but misclassification can be a costly mistake. Join Senior Partner Christine Malafi at the Miller Business Center on September 20 to take a closer look at the differences. Tickets are complimentary, but registration is required! Register here: bit.ly/2lPIdjP and contact us at (631) 738-9100 for guidance on the employment issues impacting your business.
CMM was happy to participate in Family Service League’s Annual Backpack Drive to kick off a great school year for our neighbors in need. Through our charitable arm, CMM Cares, we collected donations of school supplies for children of all ages. CMM Cares benefits our community with donations of time, dollars, and support. Philanthropy has always been integral to our firm culture, and we wish these smiling faces a great school year! Learn more about CMM Cares here: cmmllp.com/cmm-cares/
