Regardless your family or work background, legal help should never be off hands to anybody.
When it comes down to RLUIPA, it may be of close interest to churches, religious institutions and assemblies. This legal act can protect you from zoning and landmarking laws, which sometimes can appear as a threat to the religious institution and group.
What’s exactly Rluipa?
Moreover, Rluipa stands for Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, and it is good to stay informed about it, especially, as already mentioned, you administrate some religious institutions. It can be used in your favor, to protect yourself from other institutions of non-religious character that may oppose you in an not equal manner.
When to seek help and take usage of the Rluipa act?
You should consider seeking legal help if your religious institution is discriminated on the basis of your religion and faith. Further on, you can seek legal help if your institution is utterly being excluded from a local or regional jurisdiction. The same can apply if your group, assembly or general work is being jeopardized, or limited, for no particular reason, again, from the side of the jurisdiction or other bodies.
For whom, and how zoning and landmarking laws can be a problem?
Zoning and landmarking laws can be particularly hard on new, small and unknown religious groups and assemblies. For example, you may face issue with local governing bodies that may not allow you meetings or events in public venues, theatres or else. But if you address your issue at the appropriate address, for instance at Kenny Chase & Kosta, a powerful advocacy move may save you from the trouble. It is one way how you can establish yourself and freely proceed with your work.
