Uniondale-based Forchelli Deegan Terrana announced that the law firm has launched a condemnation practice group.

Also known as eminent domain, condemnation is the taking of private property by the government for public purposes. Headed by Jason Penighetti, a partner at the firm, the practice group handles proceedings on behalf of clients with any interest in the property taken.

Penighetti is also a member of the firm’s tax certiorari group, as well as an author and speaker. He has obtained millions of dollars throughout New York State on behalf his clients, according to FDT.

Other members of the group include John Terrana, co-managing partner and co-chair of the certiorari practice group; Donald Leistman, partner and co-chair of the tax certiorari practice group; Myrna Cadet-Osse, partner; and Carol Rizzo, partner. All of the members bring expertise in condemnation to the new practice group, according to FDT.

The group was formed following the recent addition of six former attorneys from Koeppel Martone & Leistman. That addition enhanced FDT’s existing real estate tax law practice, providing opportunity to launch “complementary practice groups,” including the condemnation group, according to a news release from FDT.
