How the Legalization Process Works
A general overview of what legalizing an unpermitted ADU or residential structure in California typically involves.
We review your situation, understand the structure, and help you understand what information is typically needed to assess the path forward.
We assist with researching available permit records, assessor data, and building history to understand what documentation exists for the property.
We help you understand whether legalization may be feasible based on available information, and what factors might affect the outcome.
We coordinate the preparation of as-built plans, measurements, and other documentation typically required for a permit application.
When licensed architects, engineers, or contractors are needed, we help identify and coordinate with appropriate professionals.
We help coordinate permit submittal, track the application, understand correction notices, and coordinate responses through the review process.
