| Biography | Brian is a founding member of Murphy Sullivan Kronk. His practice focuses on Vermont land use, zoning and regulatory matters and resulting appellate litigation. Brian has appeared before numerous municipal zoning and planning boards in Vermont and has practiced before each of the District Environmental Commissions that are responsible for administering Act 250 (Vermont's statewide land use law). Through the appellate process, Brian has also represented clients before the Vermont Environmental Court, the former Vermont Environmental Board, the Vermont Supreme Court, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court. Within the area of land use and zoning law, Brian has developed a further area of concentration representing telecommunications companies in their network development operations. Brian's immigration practice encompasses the representation of businesses in seeking employment-based immigrant and non-immigrant visas, and of individuals in family-based immigration matters.
