Sullivan & Barros, LLP

The team at Sullivan & Barros was excellent throughout the zoning process. They were organized, responsive, and clearly experienced in navigating DC requirements. They made everything straightforward and kept us informed at every step of the BZA process. We’re very happy with the outcome and highly recommend working with them.

Working with Alexandra Wilson on our BZA case was an absolute pleasure. She’s super friendly, easy to talk to, and always professional. What really stood out was how flexible and communicative she was. She kept us informed every step of the way and made a stressful process feel much more manageable. Alex truly goes the extra mile for her clients, and we’re so grateful for everything she did for us. Highly recommend her if you need someone reliable and supportive for your BZA needs. Sarah Harkcom was also fantastic. She was super organized, responsive, and always on top of things. Having both Alex and Sarah on our side made a huge difference, and we really appreciated their guidance and support throughout the entire process.

We needed help to secure a special exception from the DC Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA). Lacking the expertise ourselves to handle such a matter, we were told that Marty Sullivan and his team were the "go to folks" in DC. We were not disappointed. They made the process as easy as possible, working seamlessly with our architecture and design team to ensure that our request was processed as quickly and efficiently as possible (with a happy ending to boot - exception granted!). Suffice to say, we would not hesitate to recommend their services to others.

I can't say enough good things about Sullivan & Barros, which handled a request for a DC Zoning exemption that I needed to construct a modest backyard porch. They handled each step of the process, while clearly explaining what I needed to do--which ultimately was very little. It was wonderful to work with experts in their field who were also transparent, clear and kind throughout the process. I recommend them wholeheartedly.

Working with Marty and Sarah has been extremely rewarding and I've gained so much knowledge along the way. They held my hand through the entire process and answered all my questions. He did an awesome job presenting my project before the DC Board of Zoning and my case was approved. There's no doubt Marty and his team are experts in their field. I highly recommend this firm and plan to use them for future projects.
